School of Social Work Student Association

In addition to the university's Graduate Student Association, the School of Social Work has an active student association (SSWGSA). If you are a graduate student, you are automatically enrolled as a member.

Established in 2005, the SSWGSA is a vibrant association that:

• supports and encourages social, academic, and professional development of social work best practice by M.S.W. and Ph.D. students;
• serves as a conduit for dialogue between students, faculty, and administration; and
• advocates on behalf of the student body to the administration.

Community Service

Each year, we provide volunteer hours and financial support to various nonprofit and charitable community service organizations.

SSWGSA Executive Council

The SSWGSA executive council meets once a month, September through May. These meetings are generally held on the New Brunswick Campus, however, you may also attend via videoconferencing. Elections are held every spring and officers serve a 12-month term that begins in May.
