The Henry W. Maier Practitioner in Residence (PiR) program was established at the UW School of Social Work to honor the remarkable life of Henry Maier and his unique approach to social work. He was a skilled clinician, passionate professor, Fulbright Scholar and author on child development.

The Practitioner in Residence program brings students, faculty and community together to engage with a master clinician and teacher. This is a unique opportunity for participants to further develop both teaching and clinical skills in their work with children and families.
