21. Is there an exception if I failed to receive my renewal notice due to an incorrect address?
No. It is the licensee's responsibility to keep the Board notified of any address change.

22. Does the Board have a Code-of-Ethics?
Yes. Please refer to 17-103-203 of the regulations for the Code-of-Ethics/Standards for practice.

23. Will I know if a complaint has been filed against me?
Yes. When a complaint is filed against a social worker, a copy of the complaint is mailed to the social worker. The social worker is asked to respond to the allegations in the complaint.

24. What disciplinary action can be taken as a result of a complaint?
The Board may refuse to issue or renew a license or may revoke or suspend a license if it finds a violation the Social Work Licensing Law or Regulations has occurred.

25. Are social workers required to display their licenses?
LCSW’s in the private/independent practice of social work are required by law to publicly display their licenses. Other social workers may choose to display their licenses, but they are not required by law to do so. A licensee whose license has expired, been suspended or revoked must immediate remove from public display his or her license.
