Workingfor a better

tomorrow

FROM THE DEANDear Friends,

A s I approach the mid-point of my five-year term as dean of the UNC School of Social Work, I am humbled by the extraordinary work that takes place every day in our School and in the communities where our programs take place.

This year, we were ranked by U.S. News & World Report as one of the nation’s top five leading schools of social work — two ranks higher than our previous ranking. This accomplishment reflects the commitment and excellence of our faculty, many of whom are recognized as world-class leaders in our profession.

Equally important to me is our reputation among the people of North Carolina, where we have been able to serve our colleagues in social work within all 100 counties. Truly, it is a privilege to share our knowledge about the newest advances in our profession with the understanding that this expertise will benefit so many individuals and families in our state.

Of course, none of our accomplishments would be possible without the support of our donors and friends. I view our work as a collaboration, and each one of you is our partner in this effort. For that and for your support and encouragement of me as dean, I am appreciative every day!

In this annual report, you’ll find highlights spanning our academic year from July 2017 through June 2018. As you read, remember that you are part of our success. I invite you to visit our School, to meet our students and to learn about their goals and dreams. Together, we are working to achieve equity, transform systems and improve lives in our state and around the world.

With deepest gratitude,

Gary L. Bowen, Dean

2018 OUTSTANDING DOCTORAL STUDENT

Ashley Dawn Givens is the 2018 recipient of the Outstanding Doctoral Student Award. Givens

was honored during the School of Social Work’s Ph.D. reception on

May 11.

Givens received her BA in psychology

and sociology in 2008 from

Arkansas Tech University

and her MSW

from the University of Arkansas in 2010. She is a licensed MSW and skilled clinician with substantial practice experience.

In addition to publishing two book chapters, she has published nine peer-reviewed papers and has seven more submitted or in preparation. Moreover, Givens has delivered 20 or more refereed and non-refereed professional presentations and has independently taught many MSW courses at the School.

Her research interests focus on the roles trauma and mental health play in criminogenic risk and need among early adults involved in the criminal justice system. In addition to writing grant proposals for federal funding, Givens

has designed and implemented quasi-experimental and experimental studies, conducted qualitative studies and focus groups, designed and delivered surveys,

and collected and analyzed qualitative and quantitative data.

Many of Givens’ colleagues and peers described her as “industrious, dedicated, self-directed, thoughtful, supportive, and … a natural leader.”

“She is a woman with great compassion, dedication, and intelligence … exceptionally skilled at setting and accomplishing goals … interpersonally adept … with impeccable time management skills … a steadfast commitment to research and social justice … able to consider multiple perspectives and related ethical implications … and a dynamic public speaker,” wrote one individual who nominated her for the doctoral award.

Givens recently accepted a tenure-track assistant professorship at the University of Missouri School of Social Work. ♦

The UNC School of Social Work announced the graduation of 129 Master of Social Work students and two doctoral students on Saturday, May 12, 2018.

N.C. Rep. Graig Meyer delivered the commencement address. Meyer, who was elected in 2013 to represent portions of Orange and Durham counties, is one of only two trained social workers currently serving in the General Assembly. A 1998 graduate of the School of Social Service Administration at the University of Chicago, Meyer has spent his career combatting institutionalized racism and promoting educational equity and excellence. He encouraged graduates to continue to be a voice for the clients and communities they serve.

Congratulations, graduates! We honor you and your families, and we wish you the best as you continue your careers as social work professionals.

Passing the torchThere are retirements, and then there are BIG retirements. This year, UNC School of Social Work marked five BIG retirements, saying goodbye to five faculty members

who have earned widespread recognition and honor during their years at the School.

Mark Fraser, John A. Tate Distinguished Professor for Children, retires from a career that has spanned 42

years. He spent 25 of those years at the School, where he served both as associate dean for research and as director of the Jordan Institute

for Families. A prolific writer and researcher, Fraser is known internationally for his work on

risk and resilience, child and family services, and research methods. Fraser was named a Fellow of the

National Academies of Practice, the American Academy of Social Work and Social Welfare, and the Society for Social Work and Research. He has received many other awards, including the Distinguished Achievement Award from the Society for Social Work and Research.

Anne Jones, clinical professor, has also been a social work professional for 42 years. She joined the School’s

faculty 16 years ago and has worked closely with the UNC-PrimeCare program over the past four years. She helped co-found the North Carolina

chapter of the International Association of Social Work with Groups and is well known for

her work with couple and family relationships, family formation and intervention research, including a $2.5

million, five-year community intervention study designed to strengthen couple relationships and parenting bonds among economically disadvantages, unmarried, expectant couples in Durham, N.C.

Jean Livermore, associate director of field education, has been a social work professional since 1973 and

joined the School full-time in 1997. Throughout her career, she has worked with clients who had many different needs, including persons with

visual disabilities, families of preschool children with emotional and behavioral problems, teenage

mothers and couples in divorce. She developed and conducted training for service providers through her

work with the Children’s Mental Health Program. Over the past 15 years, her focus has been on field education, with responsibilities for recruiting instructors and placements, teaching field seminars and matching students with placements.

Jack Richman, Johnson-Howard-Adair Distinguished Professor and associate dean for global engagement and international programs, capped a 41-year career by serving as dean of the School from 2002 until 2016. He taught for six years at Nebraska Wesleyan University before coming to UNC in 1983; at UNC, he served as the School’s director of admissions and financial aid, co-directed the North Carolina Family and Children’s Resource Program and led the UNC Satir Program, among other roles. He was also named as an honorary professor at East China University of Science and Technology in Shanghai and helped develop collaborations in social work education in China, Israel and Lithuania. He has been elected as a Distinguished Scholar of the National Academies of Practice in Social Work.

Marie Weil, professor emeritus, has the longest tenure among these retirees. She joined the School in 1988 and was a founding associate director of the Jordan institute for Families. She is known for her research in the field of community practice, editing the widely-used Handbook of Community Practice and serving as founding editor of the Journal of Community Practice. The Marie O. Weil Outstanding Scholarship Award, sponsored by publishing company Taylor & Francis, is named in her honor and recognizes outstanding scholarship published within the Journal of Community Practice. Weil also served as Berg-Beach Distinguished Professor of Community Practice at UNC.

We thank each of these outstanding social work professionals for their contributions to our School and to the profession (totaling 200 years!), and we wish them

the best upon their retirement.
