Whether you’re considering applying to the BSW program, a new BSW student or already deep into your studies, you’ll find opportunities to connect with community partners, build practical skills, and explore the issues that matter most – from housing justice and mental health to Indigenous sovereignty and harm reduction.
We’ve curated a mix of workshops, webinars, toolkits, and gatherings designed to support your growth as a student and future practitioner. These opportunities aren’t just extras – they’re part of what it means to become a social worker. They help you build the mindset, skills, and relationships needed to lead with empathy, challenge injustice, and make meaningful change.
Discover organizations and resources that connect you to real-world social justice work - from volunteering and training to advocacy and community care.
Social work comes alive in the field. With over 100 community partners, our students gain hands-on experience in human services settings across Hamilton, Halton, Brant, Niagara, and Haldimand-Norfolk.
