For 90 years, the UB School of Social Work has been advancing the dignity and worth of humankind.
During our yearlong 90th anniversary celebration, the School of Social Work community will come together to celebrate this momentous occasion and serve our community.
Help create welcome kits for newly arrived families as part of Jewish Family Services of WNY's Refugee Resettlement Project.
To celebrate our 90th anniversary, the School of Social Work hosted a Day of Service in partnership with the City of Buffalo's Operation Clean Sweep initiative on April 24. Students, faculty, staff, alumni and field education partners joined together to pick up trash and distribute resources to residents around Masten Park in Buffalo.
In addition to marking our anniversary, volunteers dedicated their efforts to the lives lost during the racially fueled massacre in May 2022 at Tops, which was along the volunteers’ clean-up route that day.
During our 75th anniversary, faculty members Denise Krause and Susan Green led the creation of a comprehensive documentary about our history and impact. The project included about 60 interviews with alumni, former deans, UB presidents and faculty members.
