Journal of the Society for Social Work and Research (JSSWR)

Founded in 2009, the Journal of the Society for Social Work and Research (JSSWR) is the flagship publication of the Society for Social Work and Research (SSWR), a freestanding organization founded in 1994 to advance social work research. JSSWR is a peer-reviewed publication dedicated to timely dissemination of innovative interdisciplinary research on pressing and complex social problems, methodological advances, and programs, interventions, and policies that contribute to meaningful and actionable social change. Committed to publishing social work and social justice scholarship that aims to improve the lives of communities and individuals who have been historically marginalized, JSSWR prioritizes research grounded in anti-oppressive, antiracist, and intersectional frameworks that challenge existing paradigms and structures that produce and sustain social inequalities and inequities. JSSWR publishes a wide range of perspectives, research approaches, and types of analyses that advance knowledge useful for designing social programs and interventions, developing innovative public policies, and improving social work research and practice globally. The audience of JSSWR extends beyond SSWR membership to the broader population of practitioners, administrators, and policymakers whose interests include social and health problems. JSSWR considers all forms of research, including qualitative, quantitative, comparative, mixed methods, and visual methods. Its focus encompasses research relevant to a wide array of substantive fields and disciplines. JSSWR publishes full-length articles, brief reports, systematic reviews with and without meta-analyses, and commentaries. The journal is committed to rapid peer review and publication, and the turnaround time from manuscript submission to first decision averages 25 days.
