California Title IV-E Educational Program

The California State University, Chico, School of Social Work is a participant in the statewide California Title IV-E Educational Program, a collaborative project of the California Department of Social Services, the County Welfare Directors Association, California’s graduate schools of social work and social welfare, and the California Chapter of the National Association of Social Workers (NASW). The primary goal is to professionalize public child welfare services by increasing the number of bachelor's- and master's-degreed social workers who provide services to children and their families.
