Clinical Social Workers
Clinical Social Workers in the State of Vermont are governed by the "Advisor" model of regulation, created by the Legislature. Two licensed members of the profession are appointed by the Secretary of State to advise the Director of the OPR on matters relating to the profession. Their mission is public protection. The Director and the advisors carry out this mission by: ensuring that applicants are qualified for licensure; setting standards for the profession by proposing statutes and adopting administrative rules; and, with the assistance of OPR staff, investigating complaints of unprofessional conduct, taking disciplinary action against a licensee when necessary to protect the public. On this page you will find links to the laws governing this profession, as well as resources for applicants, licensees, consumers and employers.
