@MrsKadyLady When you can grab your prescription, a Twix, and 15 minutes with a skilled therapist in the same place then we are well on the way toward destigmatizing mental health treatment. #SUsocialwork
@Cal28542416@frednewspost I have no pity for Jenkins. He feels the "new laws usurp his authority as an elected sheriff." Nope, you were elected to carry out the laws of this state. Now it's time for you to be accountable to your constituents. #SUsocialwork
Wouldn't it be nice if our representatives actually represented the people of the United States? We must hold our elected officials accountable for their words, actions, and very bad ideas. #SUsocialwork

@MrsKadyLady This reminds me of an article from the Onion. We have so many tools available to us to prevent gun violence. All we need to do is actually use them #SUSocialWork https://t.co/sR3f2wejTc
@charlotteSU2020 It doesn't really represent any code of ethics, does it? Let's make our extremely secure voting system more accessible, not less. #SUSocialwork
“Women on the front lines still have family. People who make $15 an hour can’t just put their kids in private schools.” A year later and essential women still deserve essential pay. #SUsocialwork

@MrsKadyLady@MegMcCaskill_SU True! Unfortunately social work is not immune to the pressures of capitalism, productivity demands, not to mention our own demands of ourselves. I hope I can remember to advocate for my own needs more often in the future #SUSocialwork
Here's a fun fact: 24 million Americans claim English ancestry. Let's see... that's less than 10 percent. Something tells me that our political traditions may not be so Anglo-Saxon after all. #Susocialwork
Describing the United States as a place with “uniquely Anglo-Saxon political traditions” is another way of saying “if you’re not white and Christian, you don’t belong here.”

@Caitlin_MSW2020 With a baby on the way, I count myself as extremely lucky to be employed by an agency that recognizes the importance of paternity leave. If we don't support our parents, we can't expect the birth rate to rise. #Susocialwork
@caley_bennett A reminder that the drug epidemic will outlast the pandemic for years to come. Addiction is a medical illness and requires medical treatment! #SUSocialWork
@MollyFields_SU "(The Governor) didn't grow up in a neighborhood where he saw a shooting before his 10th birthday and he's not had a gun pointed in his face.” Glad Maryland has a legislature that can be responsible to its constituents. @SUsocialwork
This has been on my mind a long time. HHS is the unseen glue that holds our society together. We are underpaid, underappreciated and fed up! I wonder if this could happen here and what it would look like... @SUSocialWork

@MrsKadyLady@charlotteSU2020 I hope so! Social work is, well, "social," which means transmission of more than just information. I was told by a supervisor in March 2020 that we couldn't do this job from a computer screen. Turns out that safety demanded it, and we did fine #SUsocialwork
@ebeach_su@SUSocialWork What a reminder that we are connected in more ways than we can ever know! Perhaps media could change their focus to legislative efforts to keep assault rifles out of shooters' hands. @SUSocialWork
Frequently amazed to learn that the US is an outlier when it comes to so many social policies. "Only the Philippines and the US have a bail system dominated by commercial bail bondsmen." @SUSocialWork

Not a luddite! I believe tech will play a vital role in mental health treatment in the future. Still, can't imagine that real human connection is optional in recovery. @SUSocialWork

@TheAtlantic@KatherineJWu The publicity campaign around vaccinations will have to be smart and prepare for all the misinformation already out there. Cherry picking individual cases doesn't mean the vaccine doesn't work! #Susocialwork
