HISTORY
ASWIS History
Established in 2015, the Alliance of Social Workers in Sports raises awareness of the ways in which social work practice can partner with and contribute to all levels and all segments of sports. ASWIS promotes a social worker in sports perspective that is grounded in social and economic justice, strength-based approaches, and person-in-environment frameworks. ASWIS encourages the full range of social work practice in sports, from case management and clinical services through advocacy and policy practice for every level and segment of sports.
ASWIS finalized its incorporation in June 2016 and become an official 501(c)(3) in March of 2017.

JOB CENTER
ASWIS is committed to advertising job openings in athletics that pertain to social work practice, policy, and research. If you would like us to promote your job opening on our website please email Dr. Matt Moore (). Over the past several months, multiple individuals, organizations, and universities have contacted us about posting their positions and seeking input on the recruitment of qualified individuals for their job vacancies. We have also worked extremely hard to have conversations with employers about listing social work as a preferred degree for jobs in athletics. We are more than happy to discuss the skills of social workers with anyone wondering about the full potential of our profession.
For a donation to our Alliance, we are also able to promote any job posting as a "Spotlight" job. We will advertise your job on our home banner, feature the job as a primary posting on our job page, and send a special announcement about your posting through our membership listserv.
