NACSW equips its members to integrate Christian faith and professional social work practice. NACSW is an interdenominational and international organization which grew out of a series of annual conferences beginning in 1950. In 1954, NACSW was incorporated in the state of Illinois, in 1957 became the National Association of Christians in Social Work, and in 1984 adopted its present name. Leadership is vested in a Board of Directors composed of at least twelve NACSW members elected by the membership for three-year terms. NACSW is incorporated in the State of Illinois and registered as a foreign corporation in the State of Connecticut. You can join NACSW online by visiting our webpage at http://www.nacsw.org.
