About ME

Associate in Research Chris Groeber, MSW, speaks to the high school students.

Now, my passion is helping students understand both Micro and Macro Social Work Practice, with a strong focus on social justice. I believe self-reflection is key to being a fair and effective social worker. I’m also big on policy, leadership, coaching, and supervision, and I love working with students who want to make a real impact on the lives of children and families.

I earned my MSW from the University of Kentucky in 1993 and have spent more than 30 years deep in child welfare. I helped shape Kentucky’s Public Child Welfare Certification program, making sure future BSW students got hands-on experience before jumping into the field. I've taught a lot about Policy Development and Macro Practice and even led one of the first Quality Improvement Centers focused on frontline supervision in child welfare. Most recently, I was the U.S. CEO of Key Assets, an international organization supporting kids with severe autism. I’ve lived and worked in several countries, including a year in Chelyabinsk, Russia (yes, Siberia!). Social entrepreneurship excites me, and I’ve developed businesses with that mindset.
