This week I had the opportunity to speak with a social worker. I have family members who are social workers, but I don't know much about the profession, so it was really refreshing to speak to someone about their passion for helping people, and how they get to do it everyday. We talked about school, and how she got started doing social work, and why she chose social work as a career over all of the other options. She told me that she always had a desire to help people, and that she chose to be a social worker because she wanted to help people, and she wanted to encourage new mothers to use all the resources they have available to them.
