Empowering Women in Social Work, One Connection at a Time.
The Social Work Ladies Collective, Inc. is a newly formed 501c3 social networking + resource organization for women and femme identifying social workers and mental health professionals/students in the NYC Metropolitan Area. We provide opportunities to connect, recharge, collaborate, and build meaningful relationships that enhance community care. We also provide resources, support, as well as microgrants to social workers through our newly established Empowerment Fund.
