FSOSW members are oncology social workers or other healthcare professionals who provide a wide variety of direct patient services in public and private health care institutions and agencies.  Some members hold positions of administration, education, and research directly related to the common mission of providing quality psycho social support services to cancer patients and their families.

Full FSOSW members have an undergraduate or graduate degree in social work and are actively engaged in clinical practice, administration, education, or research in oncology social work.

Associate members are professionals who are functioning in a psycho-social oncology role without a professional social work degree or those interested in supporting the purpose of FSOSW.

Students in accredited social work degree programs may enroll for associate student membership.
