Social Work Conference

Support the 6th Annual UMKC Social Work Conference & Symposium.

Each spring, the UMKC Social Work Department hosts its Annual Conference & Symposium—an inspiring event that brings together students, faculty, alumni, and community partners to address critical issues in social work practice and policy. Now in its sixth year, the conference provides meaningful opportunities for professional development, networking, and the exchange of innovative ideas that strengthen the Kansas City community.

Your Giving Day contribution helps make this event possible—supporting student participation, continuing education for local professionals, and the showcasing of impactful social work initiatives across the region. By investing in this conference, you’re helping prepare the next generation of social workers to lead with knowledge, compassion, and a commitment to social justice.
