Hello All,

I thank you for all your support. I have heard and read most of the comments and concerns. I hope the following provisions are fair and just to everyone.

·         100 hours Supervision; 36 months field experience and 3,000 contact hours before the pandemic.

·         Allow graduates to automatically confer to the LMSW. 

·         3.5 years’ experience plus can move from an MSW and LMSW to automatically confer to LCSW.

·         MHC, MFT, Psychologist and all other clinicians should be grandfathered in based on the existing criteria with 3 years plus of experience.

·         We are also asking that the Grandfather provision be endorsed and all jurisdictions (50-states), that are most affected by the COVID19. No further examinations needed, and the license should be acknowledged for a lifetime. Application fees will remain the same according to the Association of Social Worker Boards (ASWB’s) current fees and figure printing process fees.

I have invested money and time and I am asking that you guys please chip-in to support the campaign so, that it can get more views and supporters. 

NEXT STEP:

I have written a generic letter for each state representatives and the Governors. I also need two volunteers from each state to help me with distributing the letters. Please feel free to email me at tburgos39@gmail.com. Thank you for you help.
