Message from the Director of Field Education

It's my pleasure to welcome you to the Department of Social Work and Social Ecology’s field web site.

The field faculty are very active in teaching, direct practice, and community activities, with an average of over 30 years of work experience. Field faculty serve on a number of local and statewide committees in the areas of mental health, gerontology, criminal justice, and child welfare.

Our goal is to provide students with an optimal field practicum experience where their professional skills can be developed and enhanced.

This web page was developed to assist prospective students, current students, and field instructors in readily accessing field information including field documents and forms.

If you have suggestions or comments, please contact me directly at (909) 558-7144 or tforrester@llu.edu.

Terrence Forrester, MSSW, LCSW
Director of Field Education
