Is there a cost to becoming a Collaborator (member)?

No. There are no CSRC membership fees or dues. CSRC membership is free. We do accept donations to a CSRC fund in support of ongoing costs (e.g., storage space for podcasts, website maintenance) and future goals (e.g., research grant funding).

If you are financially able, consider donating to CSRC in honor of a person who sparked your interest in and appreciation for clinical supervision; we will be happy to notify them of your gift in their honor.

Why should I join the CSRC? What are the benefits for Collaborators (members)?

CSRC is the only global, cross-disciplinary community focused on advancing clinical supervision and practice. CSRC allows its Collaborators to learn both similarities and differences in supervision practices, research questions, and advocacy priorities across geographical and disciplinary boundaries. Shared successes and challenges often suggest new ideas and potential directions for Collaborators’ own work.

For example, read Liz Beddoe’s blog about a fruitful international collaboration of social work researchers.

CSRC also is a place where you can talk about “clinical supervision” without having to explain what that means.

How do members meet each other? How does CSRC facilitate networking among members?

Each CSRC quarterly meeting includes ‘meet and greet’ breakout sessions of 3 to 4 Collaborators. These small groupings give Collaborators the opportunity to share information about their involvement in clinical supervision research and/or practice. Several Special Interest Communities (SICs) as well as individual connections around potential projects have grown out of breakout meetings.

Can you explain the CSRC Special Interest Communities (SICs)?

CSRC Special Interest Communities (SICs) are made up of CSRC Collaborators who want to explore a particular supervision topic, such as trauma-informed supervision, supervision training, or supervision practice in the public sector. They schedule regular meetings and discussions around their shared concerns and issues. Their goals can vary – from potential research partnerships to skill development. Shared advocacy efforts can be a goal of these groups also.

SICs are one way CSRC supports “spanning disciplines, bridging borders, and building a global community” around clinical supervision research and practice.

Any CSRC Collaborator can initiate a SIC. Just reach out to us at [email protected]
