SSW 2 SSW
SSWAA is excited to offer Premiere members an opportunity to participate in collaborative peer assistance sessions with experienced school social workers. SSW 2 SSW offers peer assistance in a way that protects confidentiality and is a safe space for sharing strategies, support, and assisting one another with ideas that may help the school social worker with practice issues. Peer assistance groups provide practical help and counter isolation and burnout. Being a part of a peer assistance group may be helpful but does not replace all forms of professional support. Thus, it is distinguished from professional supervision. This resource is only available to Premiere members.
SSWRL/SHELF – School Social Work Resource Library
SSWRL is a virtual library included in SSWAA Premiere Membership. Through SHELF, Premiere members have access to hundreds of additional resources on trauma informed practice, SEL, crisis intervention, professional practice, and so much more. New resources are added weekly. This is a powerful tool you will not want to miss out on!
