The Social Work Compact in New York

New York is not a Social Work Licensure Compact member. What that means for social workers who want to see clients in New York, and when you need the LCSW itself.

Concierge licensing for social workers in New York, from eligibility check to issued license.

New York Is Not a Compact State

Compact status checked 2026-10-08 against swcompact.org

New York is not a Social Work Licensure Compact member, so a multistate license will not cover practice here even once the Compact opens. Seeing clients located in New York takes a New York license, by endorsement where the state offers it or a full application where it does not.

Compact status moves: more states join each session, and the Commission expects to open multistate licensing around 2027. This page reflects our last check, not a live feed, so confirm a state's status before relying on it.
