Grant from California Department of Health Care Access and Information to expand MSW program

SF State’s School of Social Work has received a $4.8 million three-year grant from the Department of Health Care Access and Information Social Work Education Capacity Expansion Grant Program. This grant will be used to expand the Master of Social Work program at SF State, which will enable the program to admit more students, offer clinical training opportunities for current students and help them prepare for LCSW licensure. These students will be trained to work with marginalized and diverse populations in Integrated Behavioral Health settings in San Francisco Bay Area counties.

The grant is part of $35 million awarded to 11 California State University campuses.
