Dear Colleagues and Friends,

On behalf of the board, the conference organizers, and everyone at our organization, it's my pleasure to welcome you to the 36th Annual Conference of the STSW!

This year we are again pleased to bring our conference to you virtually, with live presentations from some of the leaders in transplant services, a virtual exhibit hall showcasing our exhibitors, and a poster gallery to display the best ideas from rising stars in our field. We were fortunate to be able to pivot from our planned on-site conference in Orlando to this virtual format for the second year in a row. I look forward to seeing your smiling faces during the sessions and breaks and encourage each of you to take advantage of the opportunities to connect in the Networking and Chat section of the website. I also ask that you “virtually visit” with our exhibitors without whom we could not offer this amazing conference.

Welcome to new members and welcome back to returning folks. We know that our world continues to change and who better than a bunch of social workers to help one another navigate the associated challenges? Thank you for joining us and thank you for continuing to do this important work.  Here's to a successful week together!

Molly Dugan, LCSW, CCTSW-MCS / STSW President
