Celebrating Success: Annual Conference Reflection

2024 NASW-ND Conference

Stephanie Schramm-Little, BSW, MSW, LMSW

As a proud Chair of the NASW-North Dakota Chapter Conference Committee, I’m thrilled to reflect on the incredible success of this year’s annual conference. Joining forces with the NASW chapters of Illinois and Nevada brought a unique level of collaboration and connection, emphasizing the strength and unity of our social work community across state lines. Together, we welcomed over 400 attendees, representing a wide range of professional specialties and practice areas, highlighting our field’s diversity and growth. The conference was a testament to our collective commitment to advancing social work practice, policy, and education through innovative partnerships.

The conference agenda included dynamic sessions addressing critical topics such as trauma-informed supervision, anti-racism strategies for workplace wellness, advocacy for underserved populations, and resilience-building within the profession. We also explored new ideas, such as how emerging technologies, like artificial intelligence, can enhance social work practice and policy. Interactive workshops and Q&A sessions added depth and created opportunities for participants to engage meaningfully, share experiences, and learn from one another.

On a personal note, I was honored to be among the presenters, sharing insights from my experiences in social work practice and policy advocacy. The energy in the room, the exchange of ideas, and the genuine enthusiasm of attendees reinforced the vital role conferences like this play in fostering innovation and strengthening our professional community. It reminded us why we come together as ways to connect, learn, and grow as a profession.

To everyone who made this event possible (our attendees, presenters, sponsors, and committee members), thank you for your unwavering dedication and creativity. You are what makes social work so impactful. I’m excited and looking forward to continuing this momentum into 2025. Together, we’ll keep building on our achievements, empowering social workers, and strengthening the communities we serve!
