The South Carolina Society for Clinical Social Work (SCSCSW) is a non-profit organization dedicated to advancing the social work profession and the community it serves.

The Society for Clinical Social Work was established in 1984 to advance the clinical social work profession within the field of mental health, and to promote high standards of clinical practice.

 

We are an organization of clinical social workers who practice in a variety of settings, including mental health clinics, family service agencies, psychiatric hospitals, medical facilities, and graduate schools of social work. Many are independent providers of clinical social work.

 

The Society is a non-profit, tax-exempt corporation with a Board of Directors composed of chairpersons of the various committees and officers elected by the membership.
