Social Work Focus

Social Work Focus - summer edition 2019Social Work Focus is our membership magazine. The Australian Association of Social Workers produces Social Work Focus to inform members of innovative practice, reflections, research and advice, as well as honouring the achievements of our members.

The Association has 15,000+ members, all of whom are emailed a digital copy of our magazine four times a year in three accessible formats - PDF, accessible website and a flipbook.

The magazine has been in existence since 2016, when it replaced a previous publication called National Bulletin. This coincided with the Association's 70th anniversary celebrations, heralding a new era of modern and fresh communications with members, as well as providing a fantastic opportunity for advertisers to reach our members, who are either qualified social workers or students studying a social work degree.

What does this mean for advertisers?

Our members are a dedicated group of professionals who are actively seeking products and information to support them in their practice. Products and services that would be of interest include:

  • Career opportunities
  • Postgraduate university courses
  • Legal services
  • Accounting services
  • Practice management software
  • Self-care and leisure.

Do you have those products and services that would be of benefit to our members? Then all our publications, including Social Work Focus, is the place to be seen. See below for advertising rates and timelines.

Find out more about the Association's overall service and business in the last Annual Report.
