"Critical Convos” Hosted by the UMSSW Alumni Association


The UMSSW Alumni Association will host more virtual “Critical Convo” events in October. The “Critical Convo” events look to create dialogue and facilitate conversations on critical topics relating to social work education, research and the role of the profession in the community and beyond.
