Social work professionals who do not have extensive publishing records are particularly invited to send their work for consideration. Writings from social workers who are members of a CASW member association will be given preference, subject to satisfactory peer review.

Canadian Social Work features full-length articles up to a maximum of 5000 words, approximately 12 double-spaced pages, including references. Articles, opinion pieces and research notes oriented towards advancing the knowledge, skill, and ethics of Canadian social work practitioners, and written from a social work viewpoint, are invited.
