It is very easy to become overwhelmed and stressed out! However, it is also very important to practice self care, especially as we are approaching the end of the semester, to be able to recharge our energy and get through all the school work. #506foundations
Former U.S. Presidents Barack Obama, George W. Bush and Bill Clinton said they were willing to be vaccinated against the novel coronavirus on television to ease any public skepticism over the safety of new vaccines https://t.co/iPGVjvQYo6
'All of the great leaders have had one characteristic in common: it was the willingness to confront unequivocally the major anxiety of their people in their time. This, and not much else, is the essence of leadership.'

@BarnhillCho I agree! It would make things easier, but then in order to get a decent system with good security, it would be expensive. Which is probably why it hasn't been done, unfortunately. #506foundations
@NASW_IN@Brittne99560764 I think that the Code of Ethics is important for so many reasons, but one of the main reasons is that anyone can look at the NASW Code of Ethics and see what we stand for as social workers, and that it is a profession based on compassion and human rights. #506foundations
@Brittne99560764 Yes! Movements like these are so important. As social workers, we have to stand up for those whose voices are silenced. As human beings, we have to support those who are oppressed #506foundations
@BarnhillCho In this case, they think they are attacking the Supreme Court nominee, but who they are really hurting are her children. Amazing to see such racism and projection from those who are supposedly adamantly against such things.

On Oct 4, there were anti-abortion protests happening in Evansville. Too often, people tell others what they view as wrong without offering any solutions or alternatives. Why not host a pro-adoption rally? Spread loving solutions, not hateful criticisms. #506foundations
Education is very important. It is vital to be able to have difficult conversations; this pertains to people as a whole, but especially in the field of Social Work. #506foundations

It's important to know more about the field of Social Work and what Social Workers actually do, especially in today's society. #506foundations

Sometimes people ask me, what does a Social Worker actually do?
It's part time therapist working through difficulties, part time investigator finding out more, part time safeguarding helping vulnerable people, educator and all round professional problem solver!

We have anti-abortion protest going on on S. Green River Rd. in Evansville today. I drove past them with a van full of children in foster care. How come I never see a pro-adoption campaign? #506foundations
