2023 KY LEGISLATIVE WEBSITE LINKS & KENTUCKY SOCIAL WORK ASSOCIATIONS!

Kentucky Proud.  Social workers and students collaborating, networking, and empowering our profession across Kentucky.  Our voices.  Our vision. Be the change? We are the change!

We hope you enjoy this additional mini-Tool-Kit that will be updated each year in time to celebrate KY Social Work Lobby Day. As social workers and social work students, it is critical to become familiar with our legislative process in the classroom and in our communities and how it impacts Kentucky citizens.  Please take some time to review each link so you can become informed and active in Kentucky policy and advocacy.  We have made it easy to access the many different sections of the website simply by clicking ‘open hyperlink’ to explore everything you need to know about the legislative process.

We have also included links and information about social work associations in Kentucky, as well as links to BSW, ASWB. and CSWE. Please check out the KSWAN YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@kentuckysocialworkadvocacy3808 because this is where you can find all of our taped virtual lobby day programs during the pandemic, as well as new additions on 2/22/23, March Social Work Month, and across 2023. Gratitude to Carrie Cole, MSSW, for creating this channel and recording the videos. KY Social Work Lobby Day is the perfect example of social workers and students working together to keep us engaged, educated, and empowered 365/24.

Please register for 2/22/23 Social Work Lobby Day/Rally in the Rotunda at 1pm:  https://forms.gle/8pagZJVQ9pxexzHr6
