Are you a Black social work student or professional?

Are you someone who cares deeply about Black social workers? Well, then, you have made it to the right place!

The CBSW is a community of social workers who prioritize the needs and success of Black people. We celebrate us. We care about us. We amplify our voices.

The CBSW started at the University of Tennessee College of Social Work in 2018 as a way to connect Black social work students with Black social work professionals in hopes to build community, support, and empowerment. Our organization is now a 501c3 non-profit, we have members across the country, we offer virtual trainings, a dope annual conference, opportunities for mentoring and networking, and we now have a new campus chapter at The University of Memphis.

Join us. We can't wait to welcome you as a member of the CBSW!
