Social Work program gets re-upped on nearly $700,000 federal grant

The UW-Green Bay Social Work Professional Programs has been awarded a $682,515 federal grant from the Department of Health and Human Services for the 2014-2015 fiscal year. Grant funds are used to support training and provide stipends for social work students in child welfare careers, helping both undergraduate and graduate-level students here. UW Green Bay has been a recipient of the Title IV-E Long Term Child Welfare Training Program grant since 1991. (UW-Green Bay’s participation in the program was founded through the leadership of former chairperson Betty Baer, who passed away earlier this fall.) The NEW Partnership receives a similar grant to provide on-going training for social workers currently working in child welfare.
