Dear Colleague, 

• How do the staff in your organization or program integrate their faith with their work each day as they strive to fulfill your organization's mission? 

• Do you wish there was a more effective way to network and share information with other Christian social service agencies, social work education programs, and church social ministries committed to serving others in need? 
• How can your Christian service organization become more visible within both the Christian community and the Christian social work profession? 
• Do you believe a Christian perspective is having a vital impact in the profession of social work today? 

If you believe these questions are truly important, there is a place for you.  I invite your organization to become a member of the North American Association of Christians in Social Work (NACSW) - "A Vital Christian Presence in Social Work." 

Since 1954, NACSW has supported the efforts of individual Christian members to integrate their faith and social work practice. However, for the past several years, NACSW has been approached by a number of Christian programs and agencies requesting organizational memberships. These organizations are interested in having their entire agency, program, or ministry supported and promoted by the work and services of NACSW. We believe it is time to begin reaching out to Christian social service organizations, social work programs, and church social ministries dedicated to serving others in need in the name of Jesus.

We see this extension as a natural fit with NACSW's mission, which is to support the integration of Christian faith and professional social work practice in the lives of its members, the profession and the church, promoting love and justice in social service and social reform.
