About Black Girls in Social Work

Black Girls in Social Work (BGSW) is a support and networking organization for Black Women pursuing, studying, and working within the Social Work field. Our mission is to maintain a safe space for Black women in Social Work that promotes empowerment, networking, and their personal and professional advancement while also providing for communities in need through service. We were founded on August 1, 2018 by Bodequia Simon, LMSW for Black women pursuing and working within the field of Social Work. With our base being social media platforms, Facebook and Instagram, we curated a safe space for Black women within the field to network, support, and empower one another. We are an expanding organization that is branching past the cyber world and making our mark within the field and within vulnerable communities in need. With our core values being empowerment, service, and sisterhood, we will continuously work to live up to our slogan "As she moves forward, I will always have my sister's back."
