The state’s then-10graduate schools of social work, the county departments of social services and mentalhealth, the California Department of Social Services (CDSS), and the California Chapter ofthe National Association of Social Workers (NASW) formed this consortium to create a uniquepartnership dedicated to improving the education and training of social workers for all ofthe state’s publicly supported social services: the CalSWEC). More than 8,500 graduateshave made careers in child welfare and mental health since CalSWEC’s inception over 25years ago.Emulated by many during its ground-breaking quarter of a century, CalSWEC today remainsthe largest coalition of its kind in the nation with 22 participating universities.
