In 1989, the legislature created the Oregon Progress Board to develop and nurture a preferred vision for Oregon´s future.  The Board worked with the legislature to develop 90 Benchmarks which measure the quality of life for Oregonians.  All state agencies are to report annually concerning their relationship to, and impact on, any of the Benchmarks.

 

The State Board of Clinical Social Workers is tasked with public protection and with providing quality customer service.  While neither of those primary goals connect with any of the 90 specific Benchmarks, the Board has developed Performance Measures to assess how effectively they function with their primary responsibilities.
