The establishment of the American Academy of Social Work and Social Welfare in 2009 represented an effort by the leading national social work organizations to strengthen the field’s capacity for rigorous analysis that can guide effective human services policies, programs, and practices, is intended to encourage and recognize outstanding research, scholarship, and practice that contribute to a sustainable, equitable, and just future.

“The Fellows of the Academy are all strong leaders in integrating scientific methods and social work practice and policy and an enormous resource for the field.  I am delighted that 15 more Fellows will be inducted as this will significantly strengthen the range and impact of our work to address the grand challenges facing our society.” said AASWSW President Richard Barth, Dean of the University of Maryland, School of Social Work.
