Branch – Queensland
The Queensland Branch, with over 2,800 members, is supported by a voluntary Branch Management Committee elected by the Branch membership. We service and represent Social Workers from the southern border north to Rockhampton.
The Branch’s key role is to provide local support for AASW members through a range of activities that enable members to network, develop practice skills and organise around social justice issues. The Branch Management Committee provides the conduit for communications between members in Queensland.

Followed by dinner with short presentations (10 mins).
