Exploring the Pipeline to Graduate Social Work Education
Project Description
Increasing the diversity of the behavioral health workforce is critical to providing culturally competent and responsive behavioral health care to minority communities. This study used the National Survey of College Graduates (NSCG) to understand the pipeline of diverse Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) graduates to Master of Social Work (MSW) programs in order to assess how student demographics, educational programs, and loan debt burden impact pathways into the profession.
