REPORTED REFERRED TO RULES
Summary
The measure amends the education law to prohibit anyone other than a licensed master or clinical social worker from providing those services, including attorneys, clergy, certain counselors, students, and trainees. It creates limited exemptions for recent MSW graduates who apply for licensure, and for government employees already performing such services at the time the law takes effect. The goal is to protect the public by ensuring only qualified, licensed practitioners deliver social work care.
