Webb Lecture

Back in March, Pitt Social Work was thrilled to welcome two Pitt Social Work alumnae Macon Stewart (MSW ‘02) and Karen Kolivoski (MSW’06; PhD ‘12) back to campus to lead a lecture focused on the challenges faced by youth in both the child welfare and juvenile justice systems.

Florence Gibbs Momeyer Endowed Lecture

Momeyer Lecture

In October, the School of Social Work and the Center on Race and Social Problems hosted the annual Florence Gibbs Momeyer Endowed Lecture featuring senior fellow and director of the Center for Community Uplift at the Brookings Institution, Dr. Andre Perry. A native of Pittsburgh, PA., Perry’s research focuses on race and structural inequality, education, and economic inclusion. Perry’s recent scholarship at Brookings examines well-being across racial groups and regions in America, focusing on how investments in critical assets can lead to thriving.
