School systems should have a better system for combatting weapons. Unfortunately this incident occurred recently.

Should a reduce sentence equal to the risk they are taking for their mental health and life?

Every year they have this and I am not sure if they should risk their lives for a reduced sentence on top of a unjust and inhumane prison system.

[AJ+ @ajplus]

Incarcerated women are fighting California’s wildfires, risking their lives and mental health in exchange for reduced sentences.

Here's what these fire camps can teach us about America's prison system.

I read a quote that stated, “If the penalty for a crime is a fine, then the law only exist for lower class”

Thoughts?

@Spangenberg_K He ended up taking his own life when police was about to go into apartment building where he was shooting

[Capricia Ocasio @COcasioSW]

Lost for words. This is like the DC snipper all over again.
I live minutes from this area.

4 people were wounded including a 12 year old girl. I hope everyone stay safe.

@JRMcDaniel22 Sometimes you have to take it with a grain of salt. With that said, your uncertainty about Twitter is understandable.

[Capricia Ocasio @COcasioSW]

Twitter was great! I was able to advocate and be educated from the media and social issues in the world. It kept me informed. Twitter is a platform to share knowledge and tips with peers. I will continue my Twitter page even after the semester.

[Kim Griswold Releford @kgrelefordswp]

@TaylorKrauseSW Taylor,

I’m with you! I absolutely love the change in assignment. This was fun. I enjoyed your tweets and you provided me with lots of information and resources. Hope you continue to tweet in the future.

@abigailopare28 Abigail,

Thanks for all the knowledge and resources you shared throughout the semester. Social workers on social media is a great platform to advocate for social changes

[Capricia Ocasio @COcasioSW]

@elkatiemo Thanks for the link. It was very informative. The US has 4.2 million people experiencing homelessness and 700,000 minors.

Empower and protect victims speaking out on their offender. It is important for them to no longer silence their pain

[AJ+ @ajplus]

Simone Biles and retired gymnasts testified over FBI failures to investigate Larry Nassar, blaming "an entire system" for enabling his abuse.

"What is the point of reporting abuse? ... They had legal, legitimate evidence of child abuse and did nothing."

[Capricia Ocasio @COcasioSW]

I think this is great! It will allow victims and families to come closer to repairing the damage from their offenders

[Social Work Today @SocialWorkToday]

In restorative justice, a meeting is organized between offenders, their victims, and their families to decide how to repair harm that has been caused. Some school social workers are incorporating this process with their students. https://t.co/fzdebeqqde

Impact of the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 on Trends in Federal Sex Trafficking Cases.

Provides great insight into the success of the policy and how active the country has been in combatting human trafficking since 2000 https://t.co/yGHM0UEDky

[Capricia Ocasio @COcasioSW]

@erikaw_sw Interesting policy. What are other things about it?

[Capricia Ocasio @COcasioSW]

What are your thoughts on this?

[Capricia Ocasio @COcasioSW]

I recently completed an assignment that reported the homeless population is the hardest to work with, according to nurses, agencies, and social workers, especially the mentally I’ll and substance abusers.

[Capricia Ocasio @COcasioSW]

@elkatiemo Love your policy. There is a lot of youth that experience homelessness.

Our youth is the most vulnerable. I love how your policy has implemented resources.

[Capricia Ocasio @COcasioSW]

@kaylee_madewell This is great that you shared this. Our policy goes hand in hand as mainly women and children were victims of human trafficking. Protection of women’s act was reauthorized as part of TVPA 2000 act was implemented.

[Capricia Ocasio @COcasioSW]

My policy, trafficking victims protection act of 2000, prosecuted traffickers, prevented human trafficking, and protect victims and survivors of trafficking. Human trafficking is the modern day slavery, since the 17th century people have been held against their rights.
