How Connecticut Licensed Clinical Social Worker license verification works

A Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Connecticut is licensed by the CT Behavioral Health / Counseling & Social Work Boards. PrimaryCheck looks the license up live at the board's public verification system (board lookup) by license number, or by name when no number is supplied. The record the board publishes is captured as evidence, hashed, and rendered into a proof PDF.

Fields returned for this board: license_number license_type status status_reason issued effective expires city state zip record_refreshed_on.

Social Work Licensure Compact and multistate Licensed Clinical Social Worker licenses
