Professional Social Workers in Child Welfare Work: Research Addressing the Recruitment and Retention Dilemma

This month, the NASW Research Web Page focuses on a number of studies that identify challenges to recruitment and retention; provides research and resource information that supports the importance of professional education for child welfare practice; highlights issues related to encouraging social workers to choose child welfare as a career path; and identifies outcomes from agency/university partnerships that affect recruitment and retention difficulties.

Following is information that provides context for this research, followed by examples of research efforts that can guide future policy, practice, education, training, and additional research.
