The School Social Work Association of America (SSWAA), with initial funding from the National Education Association, is developing and publishing the International Journal of School Social Work (IJSSW), a free online open access journal.

The initial purpose of IJSSW is to expand the quantitative and qualitative research base supporting school social work services throughout the world.

The importance of evidence-based practice has been magnified by the increasing demand to demonstrate student outcomes. This journal will allow school social workers from around the world wider access to current research.

Our mission is to support knowledge that encompasses global perspectives on school social work. We need your support to increase access to these perspectives and disseminate knowledge. If you are an experienced writer and would be willing to co-author with a scholar or practitioner from another part of the world please fill out this form. We understand that authoring a text in English can be a barrier to publication and we want to provide support for this process. If you would like to be paired with another scholar or practitioner for co-authorship or support, please click on the link below.
