CEO/Executive Director/Board Comments
| The challenged faced by TCSW is the growing number of organizations that have a more targeted approach to both professional development and advocacy efforts. TCSW is broadly focused as our members cover all aspects and areas of social services. The opportunity we have is the same, we are broadly focused and able to bring together providers from an array of service areas to strengthen both professional development and advocacy efforts. |
