I have a passion for supporting those in need, and I like to create an environment of compassion to help individuals and families to overcome obstacles.
As adults in therapy or on a journey of self discovery it is important to first heal from childhood traumas. This article has some pertinent information on that

@ajonesswp Sometimes, I miss these posts but that is an interesting policy,I didn't realize that African Americans were excluded from the policy. Please share some information/articles about it I am interested. Thank you
This semester has been so wild especially towards the end, one bad thing after the next. Nonetheless, I chose to have a growth mindset. Check out this article https://t.co/mnrL9D5n3g
@Hhartmanswp Haley, thanks for sharing; I love all 12 of these humanitarian efforts and would love to see them gain more notoriety and funds to make a change.
@kaylee_madewell Hi Kaylee, I share the same sentiments as social workers; we have to be mindful of our internet use and ensure that everything we do is in our client's best interest.
@COcasioSW I saw this and was completely annoyed, I watched one where a family married off a child possibly 9 years old for some food but the camera crews could have offered food instead of filming the ordeals. So strange.
@COcasioSW So sad these perpretrators feel so confident that the victims will nor speak up but there comes a time when enough is enough. I hope she get some therapy and heals from this.
@kaylee_madewell@Hhartmanswp I there are a lot of online platforms that can be used to advocate or help clients in need. Didn't think that twitter was one of them. I still have a lot to learn.
@JRMcDaniel22@kaylee_madewell Jasmine, I like that you say fighting for the rights of all people. Women are more likely to be abused but men are often too ashamed or ridiculed when they report abuse so they keep it to themselves. I'm looking at the Johnny Depp and Amber Heard case and it's not looking good.
It was great to see the perspective of others, as someone who is not computer savvy, or like social media I was a little nervous. It wasn't so bad after all, it is quite possible that I will be using social media in the future to provide social welfare services.
SW401 to round out our discussion, in a NEW Tweet, discuss your Twitter experience this semester; how will you use social media in your social work career? Then read/respond to at least 2 of your classmates. This portion of the discussion will conclude on Saturday night.
When my best friend was dying from a brain cancer the only thing that kept her calm was animal assisted therapy. Animal assisted therapy is so great for people when going through a tough time.
