The Annual Fall Social Work Conference presents national speakers along with the latest research to child welfare practitioners in Alabama.  Through the Title IV-E partnership between the Alabama Department of Human Resources and the Alabama Higher Education Consortium on Child Welfare, The University of Alabama School of Social Work is able to host the conference every year, each focusing on a different aspect of public child welfare.

 This conference is designed with the public child welfare workforce in mind, but would be beneficial to anyone working with at-risk children and their families – for example, school social workers, therapists, foster parents and child-placing agencies.
