Statistics show that 65 percent of all outpatient mental health services in the United States are provided by clinical social workers. We provide more services than psychiatrists, psychologists, and licensed counselors combined. It is important for us as professionals to have an organization that serves and helps protect our clinical practice whether we work in agencies or in private practice.

Based in St. Louis, the Missouri Society for Clinical Social Work is an organization of Social Work professionals who work in the mental health field. We are united with the purpose of advancing, protecting and promoting excellence in the Clinical Social Work profession at the state and local level.

We are the only organization in Missouri solely devoted to meeting the professional needs of master's and doctoral level Licensed Clinical Social Workers. We are affiliated nationally with the Clinical Social Work Association (formerly, the Clinical Social Work Federation).

We are an active organization, providing many benefits for members. There are many opportunities to get involved. Join us for professional community, networking, socializing, education, referrals, job information, and awareness of laws that will affect our work and our clients.

If you are a Clinical Social Worker, we'd like you to consider us your clinical home. Join us! You are welcome here.
