Sending on behalf of NASW-FL:

Dear NASW-FL Members,

Thank you to everyone who has already participated in our statewide licensing survey regarding experiences with the Florida Social Work, Marriage and Family, and Mental Health Counseling Licensing Board. Your responses are already making an impact.

To date, we have received over 100 responses, and the survey has already drawn the attention of key decision-makers. Chapter leadership will soon meet with the Executive Director of the Florida Department of Health and the Board Chair to discuss preliminary findings.

Yet, we need more stories and more participation.

To effectively advocate for meaningful systemic improvements, we need substantial responses. The more responses we receive, the stronger our collective advocacy becomes.

We are asking all members to continue sharing the survey through their professional and personal networks.

While NASW-FL’s primary focus will always be to advocate for social workers first, we also recognize that these challenges affect professionals across the entire 491 Board system. We welcome responses from LCSWs, LMHCs, LMFTs, registered interns, and applicants.

Please prioritize submitting your feedback by May 15.
Survey Link: https://lp.constantcontactpages.com/sv/dGWuqRD

Thank you for continuing to support this important advocacy effort and for helping us elevate the voices and experiences of Florida’s behavioral health professionals.

Sincerely,
Christina Cazanave-McCarthy, MSW
Executive Director
