Rutgers School of Social Work’s Office of Continuing Education hosted its ninth annual Challenging Racial Disparities Conference, “A Call to Action,” on Wednesday, June 9, bringing together more than 500 social workers and allied professionals for a powerful virtual learning opportunity. Attendees heard from thought leaders in the profession and gained new skills to address issues in their work with clients, organizations, and communities.

Rutgers School of Social Work is pleased to announce the appointment of Drs. Julia Cusano, Sandra Edmonds Crewe, Amml Hussein, and Durrell Malik Washington Sr. to its faculty. We asked them to identify five meaningful objects in their homes and offices.
