As the summer semester ends, NASW-WI would like to thank the interns. This group worked on grants and PowerPoints and supported the Social Worker’s PAC, all in preparation for the fall elections. The interns this semester also completed a review of the most pressing social work topics and looked into the archives as we prepare to celebrate our 50th annual conference in the fall. Thank you for your hard work, Kendra, Lily, and Ariella.
