Lara Sobel Scholarship

Donations toward NASW-VT's Sobel Scholarship will be gladly accepted at the registration table throughout the day and via donation button when you register.

The Sobel Scholarship will be offered to a rising Junior BSW social work student who reflects Lara Sobel's ability to seek out the good no matter how overwhelming and negative the circumstances; never allow the misfortune of individuals or their level of despair to become routine or acceptable; and strengthen the cause of child welfare, social justice, and health and wellness of child welfare staff. The scholarship will consist of $1000, free NASW-VT membership, free admission to all NASW-VT events, and the assignment of a social worker mentor for one year.
