Special Interest Groups
Special Interest Groups (SIGs) bring social workers together in an organized way to advocate, educate, disseminate information, connect people with resources, and promote social action on behalf of clients, themselves, and others. NASW-NJ has the following Special Interest Groups. For a description of the areas each SIG covers, click here.
For more information on how to get involved with a Special Interest Group, please contact the appropriate chair.
