About the NASW-NJ Annual Conference

The NASW-NJ Annual Conference is the must-attend event of the year for new jersey's social workers. The conference brings together hundreds of participants from across new jersey and nationwide for 3 days of learning, laughter, and networking. With dynamic keynote speakers, cutting-edge workshops, and engaging special presentations, attendees have the opportunity to earn up to 23 continuing education credits during the event.

Registration is now open for the 2026 NASW-NJ Annual Conference, taking place April 26–28, 2026, in Atlantic City at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. As we step into a new year, we look ahead to one of the most meaningful gatherings of our social work community.

This year’s theme, Bridging the Gap, Building the Future: A Call for Social Work Action, centers on the essential role social workers play in connecting people to resources, communities to solutions, and today’s challenges to tomorrow’s progress.

From direct practice to policy and advocacy, the conference will spotlight the conversations, connections, and collective action needed to move our profession forward. Attendees can expect engaging keynote speakers, expert-led sessions, opportunities to earn Continuing Education (CE) credits, and meaningful networking with social workers from across New Jersey.

Early Bird registration is now open through March 6, offering a discounted rate for those who register early.

Mark your calendar and plan to join us as we come together to learn, lead, and help shape the future of social work.
