Community Advisory Board

The School of Social Work at Illinois State University has an experienced professional advisory board that reports directly to the School's faculty members.

The Advisory Board meets at least once each year to address social work practice, policy, and curriculum issues that are emerging in our local community. The School then fine-tunes and modifies its BSW and MSW curricula around the Board's suggestions. Members of our School's advisory board are:
