As a charter member of the Virginia Sociary of Clinical Social Work, I request that “persons using the title of “Social Worker” must be either licensed under the requirements of Chapter 37 of Title 54.1…or use clarifying initials that signify re-ceiving a baccalaureate or master’s degree in Social work from an accredited school of social work or program approved by the Council on Social Work Education, or a doctorate in social work. It is extremely important that the title of “Social Worker” clearly exclude any other training, experience, or education in order to pro-tect our profession and title, and that the regulations must be amended to require compliance with 54.1-3709 in all aspects.
