About
WHY A WEALTH CONFERENCE?
For decades, talking about finances in social work has been taboo, leaving many dedicated professionals with financial struggles. We’ve witnessed the painful consequences: social workers, the heart of every community, overworked and underpaid. This reality is not just unsustainable—it’s heartbreaking.
With an increase in social workers’ advocating for appropriate compensation and a growing global consciousness around personal economic growth, we saw a need. Social workers needed a safe space to talk about finances, wealth, and abundance openly and how to transition this knowledge to support client wellness and create greater impact in communities. So, we created the Social Work Wealth Conference to place these crucial conversations front and center. We know that when social workers are empowered, they give more and serve more.
Our conference seeks to enhance financial literacy, empower social workers with knowledge about skills and tools including investing, retirement, and more! To truly elevate the communities and causes we serve, it is critical to embody financial health and wellness.

Meet Our Founder
“Eva, thank you for your vision! What you’ve managed to put together is simply amazing!”~ Elana Weinstein
We social workers are the ultimate givers, and it’s about time we ditch the disempowering money beliefs and learn how to make and maximize our money for more.
And what’s great is that we get to be surrounded by like-minded folks on the same journey – gaining and sharing financial resources and tools, and building a “wealth” of connections.
This is the event I wish had existed when I was a younger professional. It’s all about boosting our wealth – and, in turn, our clients’ – so we can keep rocking at what we do best—making a difference.
