Check Us Out on MySpace and Facebook

NASW WI has created both a MySpace and a Facebook profile to facilitate networking social work students, young professionals, and persons interested in the field of Social Work. Both profiles list information about programs and resources NASW offers. It also will list upcoming events NASW WI sponsors and includes information on how to join!

This exciting new program was suggested by our Membership Committee, approved by our Board of Directors, and implemented and maintained by our student intern. At the office we hope to inform our current members about the many things we do for them and recruit more members into the organization.
