The Annual Texas School Social Workers Conference is one of the longest running and largest conferences focused on continuing education and professional development for social workers in schools. 

For the conference's 35th year, UT Social Work is proud to announce the conference theme: "Igniting Hope: School Social Workers Lighting the Way." This year’s theme celebrates the power of school social workers to spark change and illuminate pathways, as we bring hope to students, families, and communities. Join us as we uplift one another through inspiring keynotes, dynamic institutes, and engaging workshops. Let's come together and fuel our energy to light the way for school social workers in Texas!

The first day of the conference provides three hours of ethics CEUs along with an interactive and motivational opening keynote. The second and third days are a rich mix of informational and inspiring keynotes and breakout workshops led by local and national peers.

Join us to further your growth and better support your students and school.
