Student Advisory Committee
Established in 2023, the Group for the Advancement for Doctoral Education in Social Work Student Advisory Committee (SAC) consists of doctoral students from member institutions (PhD and DSW programs) serving a two-year appointment.
The purpose of the SAC is to encourage stronger student engagement with the organization and provide a mechanism for the Board of Directors to better understand student experiences through increased student voice and input into the organization’s activities.
