This milestone event, held at the beautiful WVSOM Conference Center in historic Lewisburg and online, will bring together social work professionals, health and human services providers, and community leaders to explore the unique challenges and innovative solutions impacting rural communities.
The theme for this year’s conference, “Celebrating Our Roots, Forging Our Future: Resilience & Renewal in Rural Social Work,” reflects the enduring strength and transformative potential of rural communities. Over the course of this conference, attendees will engage in thought-provoking sessions, dynamic panel discussions, and collaborative workshops.
