Annual NASW-CA Retreat

The annual NASW-CA leadership retreat took place in San Mateo on June 24-25, 2016. Leaders already in office and newly elected leaders met for an evening networking dinner and a day of activities followed by sightseeing in San Francisco. Because our state is so large, in terms of population and surface, the leadership retreat is a great time for everyone to meet up in person. Next year’s retreat will be held in Southern California.

Here’s a peek at this year’s retreat!
