Social Policy and Research Communication Program

The Social Policy and Research Communication Program (SPRCP) of the Indiana University School of Social Work (IUSSW) is a new initiative that provides Ph.D. and MSW students the opportunity to produce policy briefs. 

The purpose of the SPRCP

  • To generate a set of knowledge translation products
  • To train Ph.D. and MSW students in research communications.
  • disseminate policy briefs to community stakeholder and legislators.  The SPRCP is funded through the Center for Social Health and Well-being within the Indiana University School of Social Well-being.

Selected applicants will be invited to translate research findings generated by Ph.D. and MSW students into policy briefs suitable for perusal by legislators, stakeholders, and members in the community. The selected students will participate in a training activity in January, gain access to the SPRCP Canvas page, and produce a 3-5 page policy brief.  An Indiana University School of Social Work committee will determine the top three policy briefs and award monetary awards in the form of scholarships. 

The following monetary awards will be provided: best submission, $750.00; first runner-up $500.00; second runner-up $250.00.  Policy brief finalists will be invited to the PhD Symposium on May 1, 2020 where awardees will be announced.

IU School of Social WorkPartnerships

Indiana Child Welfare Education and Training Partnership

The Indiana University School of Social Work works in collaboration with the Indiana Department of Child Services to better protect children at risk of abuse and neglect. A key to this collaboration is the creation of the Child Welfare Education and Training Partnership. The Partnership is designed to provide high quality social work education and statewide training for public child welfare employees.

Center for Social Health & Well-being

The Center for Social Health and Well-being is to support and conduct research, evaluation and training programs, in consort with external partners, that can address human and social needs faced by individuals, organizations, communities, and societies.

National Child Welfare Workforce Initiative

Our aim is to help you to understand the Indiana Trauma-Informed Child Welfare Fellowship Program and programs associated with it. We are excited about the practice of child welfare in Indiana.

Institute for Juvenile Court and Corrections Research

Rather than relying solely on textbooks or lectures, faculty, students and researchers will be able to use IJCCR's video library for a unique firsthand experience that is second only to onsite training.

IU School of Social WorkOffice of Education Assessment
