Mission Statement of Podcast: The CSCSW’s Podcast will offer educational content by providing clinical social work training and information that builds professional practice competency for members.

 

This episode will briefly introduce the podcast mission, a podcast of the California Society for Clinical Social Work.  Dr. Veronica Obregon, a licensed clinical social worker and board member of the California Society for Clinical Social Work, presents the podcast. Serving as both host and interviewer, Dr. Obregon outlines the podcast's dual focus on outreach and training. The training episodes aim to provide educational opportunities for mental health providers, offering continuing education credits. Following each episode, listeners are encouraged to visit the organization's website, where they can take an episode quiz to earn their CEU certificate for mental health providers practicing in California. Additional resources and handouts are also made available.

In addition, the outreach episodes feature interviews with board members, committee members, and/or student members, shedding light on the benefits of joining the California Society for Clinical Social Work. The organization's mission to advance and promote the profession and practice of clinical social work is emphasized, inviting listeners to consider membership.
