Abstract	As homelessness continues to pose a significant social problem in many urban areas, service agencies rely on social workers to fulfill a critical role. However, recruitment and retention of social workers for high-demand fields, such as homeless services, is challenging. This study offers a formative analysis of a master's of social work field education program that brings multiple universities and service agencies together, with the Corporation for Supportive Housing in Los Angeles serving as lead convener. The preliminary efficacy of the collaborative field placement model is examined through a program stakeholder analysis and extensive literature review. Findings inform program enhancements and revisions. Evidence-based recommendations for communities interested in improving social worker recruitment and retention through a collaborative field placement program are offered. (As Provided).
