Our mission is to enhance the education of school social workers, home & school visitors, and allied professionals.

Since 1978, PASSWP has been actively involved in the professional education of Home & School Visitors and School Social Workers in Pennsylvania.

PASSWP works with the Department of Education, and other professional organizations to stay on the cutting edge of trends in the profession.  We look to experts in our field to provide training for the school social workers and home and school visitors who are providing critical support services to all students in the Commonwealth.

PASSWP is devoted to maintaining the highest possible standards for school social work personnel employed in our schools.  We have an academic liaison assigned to work with the institutions of higher education within the Commonwealth.

PASSWP strives to offer a variety of continuing education options and networking for our membership and the broader social work community.
