The National Association of Social Workers (NASW) celebrates social workers who are graduating in 2020. Your years of hard work have paid off and we wish you success in your career.

Due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, many of you have not been able to enjoy a traditional graduation. We hope you will be able to celebrate with your loved ones in person soon.

In the meantime, we've gathered congratulatory messages from social work leaders and photos of some of the hundreds of social workers who earned baccalaureate, master’s and doctoral degrees in social work.

Congratulations, Graduates!
