Seven states have now enacted the Social Work Licensure Compact, triggering the implementation of multi-state licensure for social workers.

The Council of State Governments and partners have announced that language is finalized for the Social Work Licensure Compact. The compact must be enacted into state law by at least seven states. At that time, the Social Work Compact Commission will be created and additional infrastructure established, and then multistate licenses will begin to be issued.
