Welcome VA Clinical Social Workers!

Here’s a new site for VA clinical social workers who want to further their careers through board certification and a community of clinicians sharing best practices and innovations. It’s a joint project of the organization that issues the BCD credential, the American Board, and its online colleague organization, ACSWA.

Why a new site for VA clinical social workers? Because you’re doing some of the most important work in the US, and board certification and a clinical community are huge career enhancers, both in money and prestige. The site’s independence guarantees that you can discuss whatever you want, whenever you want: from programs for pay increases to a clinical forum on best methods and innovations, this site is a community by and for VA clinical social workers only.

Here, you’ll find discussions, resources, and a partner for your professional career. Join ACSWA-VA and get fresh VA news and discussions every day, along with the ability to connect to your colleagues all across the country.

The American Clinical Social Work Association (ACSWA) is an operating unit of the Center for Clinical Social Work, whose mission is to promote clinical social work as a central health profession based on bio-psycho-social competencies, values, and methods that result in superior behavioral healthcare.
