Quotes About NASW

RASSW published its first public position paper in February 1976 on the issue of licensure. Placing the issue in the broader context of the economic crisis, the paper addressed three questions: (1) the role of NASW; (2) whether licensing of social workers was racist; and (3) the relationship of licensure to service quality and accountability.

After 1955, the AASW's successor, the National Association of Social Workers (NASW) assisted the FBI in the investigation of suspected radicals such as Meyer Schreiber and Margaret Wheeler.
