HCS HB 332 -- SOCIAL WORKERS

This bill prohibits persons from holding themselves out as being
a social worker or using the title "social worker" unless they
hold a current license in baccalaureate or clinical social work
issued by the State Committee for Social Workers or hold a degree
from an accredited social work program approved by the Council on
Social Work Education.

Beginning January 1, 2004, no entity, public or private, may use
the title "social worker" for volunteer or employment positions
within contracts for services, documents, manuals, or reference
material unless those persons being referred to have met all
educational requirements set by the bill.
