NASW/Texas is proud to again host the Student Poster Presentation Program! We encourage all conference attendees to visit the selected student authors, ask questions, and view their poster presentations during the Welcome Brunch in the lobby of the Grand Ballroom at the Galveston Island Convention Center on Thursday, October 5, from 10:45am-12:15 pm. Posters will be reviewed by a sub-committee during this time and the “Outstanding Posters" will be recognized during the Closing Plenary on October 7.

Many thanks to our 2017 Student Poster Presentation sponsor, Dogwood Mental Health and Wellness!
