SSWAA & Midwest Council
Midwest Council of School Social Workers
The Midwest Council consists of all school social work associations in eleven surrounding states: Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Ohio, Kansas, Kentucky, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, and Wisconsin. These states each have School Social Work Associations and send delegates to Midwest Council meetings twice a year to discuss issues that affect school social workers.
Each year, one of the eleven states hosts the Midwest Conference, which offers an opportunity to hear speakers from around the nation and the chance to network with hundreds of other school social workers.
