Social Work Licensure Compact

AI Summary

The Social Work Licensure Compact is a federal bill designed to establish a system for the mutual recognition of social work licenses across participating states. This compact aims to facilitate licensure portability for social workers, allowing them to practice in multiple states without the need for additional licenses. The key provisions include creating a uniform set of licensing standards, streamlining the license application process, and promoting workforce mobility while ensuring consumer protection. By joining this compact, states can enhance access to social work services, address workforce shortages, and improve coordination during emergencies or disasters that require out-of-state professionals.
