Any social worker holding an MSW or DSW degree from an accredited graduate school of social work, who is currently practicing in a clinical setting or who has an interest in clinical social work may apply as an Associate of the Society. An Associate Member may apply to the Membership Chairperson for a change to Full Member status upon completion of the necessary requirements. Affiliates are fully participating, voting members of the Society. These are individuals who have been awarded Certified Clinical Social Work status by the state of North Carolina, but who do not have an MSW degree. Transitional members are fully participating, voting members of the Society.
Transitional status is available for the first two post-MSW years.
Student membership is open to any full-time MSW student who has an interest in clinical social work and is enrolled in an accredited program. The status of retired or unemployed member is available to any individual who is eligible for full or associate membership and is retired or unemployed, meaning totally unsalaried in any field.
