A graduate of the MSW program at San Diego State University, Dr. Bray has had an extensive career including being the Director of Project Oz, and a Social Worker at San Diego County Adoptions Unit, Southern Indian Health Council, Children’s Home Society, Southwood Psychiatric Residential Treatment Center, Pathways/Mid-City, Parents United, and Navy Family Advocacy Program.

Living with kidney disease since age two, having survived 50-plus surgeries, 13 years of dialysis and now living with her fourth kidney transplant, Hartwell has made a difference in the lives of countless people with Chronic Kidney Disease. In 1993, because of her struggle to find social and peer support to manage her condition, Hartwell founded the Renal Support Network (RSN). She is also a published author, a podcast host, and has created and maintained numerous programs.

This year, NASW-CA will present the Organization of the Year award to the William S. Hart Union High School District. The School District is located in the Santa Clarita Valley in the northern part of Los Angeles County and serves 7th through 12th grades.
