Student Involvement in BAABSW Welcome to the Student Page of the Bay Area Association of Black Social Workerswebsite! Joining BAABSW as a student offers an enriching educational andprofessional experience that you will not find anywhere else. Unfortunately, asSocial Work students of Afrikan ancestry, our curriculum does not always give equalweight to teaching the rich history of Black Social Work as a profession. Therefore,it is our responsibility to engage with this history through additional avenues. Yourmembership in the BAABSW is a great step towards exploring the legacy that we are called to continue. As a student member of the Bay Area Association of Black Social Workers (BAABSW), you will have access to: • Mentorship with experienced Social Workers • Peer support from other students of Afrikan ancestry • Assistance with Career Planning • Scholarships • Discounted Registration to the Annual NABSW Conference • Opportunities for Community Service • Opportunities for Professional Growth • Educational Forums Please keep checking the website for upcoming Networking, Social, and Fundraising events catered just for Social Work students! |
