NV SB68

Four behavioral health licensing boards (Psychology, Marriage/Family Therapists and Professional Counselors, Social Workers, and Alcohol/Drug/Gambling Counselors) must expand annual reports to include narrative descriptions of data collection processes, reasons for license denials, reasons for application volume changes, and intended practice locations of applicants

Nevada ratifies and enters the Social Work Licensure Compact, enabling licensed social workers to practice across all member states through a multistate license issued by their home state

The Compact takes effect when enacted by the seventh state and creates the Social Work Licensure Compact Commission as a joint governmental agency to administer the agreement

Multistate license applicants must hold an unencumbered license in their home state, submit fingerprints for criminal background checks, pass qualifying national exams, and meet education requirements (bachelor's, master's, or clinical level as applicable)

Clinical-level multistate licenses require a minimum of 3,000 hours or two years of full-time postgraduate supervised clinical practice
