In memory of Paul Cheng, the Inspiring Social Worker of the Year Award has been established to recognize social workers in British Columbia whose professional and personal efforts and dedication to serving people from marginalized communities has inspired others to care and contribute to the promotion of social justice.
Nominations will be received from March 18 to June 15, 2019. All nominations will be sent by email to bcasw@bcasw.org with the phrase “Inspiring Social Worker Award” in the subject line. Please see this poster for more details on the award and how to nominate a candidate.
The Award is co-sponsored and organized by the British Columbia Association of Social Workers and the University of British Columbia, School of Social Work. The adjudication committee will be formed in April with two members from BCASW, two members from the UBC School of Social Work and the funder (or her delegate).
