@StephanieBried2 It is hard for rule kids to get transportation and money to obtain resources that are needed in their community just as much as bigger cities. #swk315wwu Good find!

Losing your identity and sense of feeling needed can be hard. Retirement does this to people. You might feel ready to do so, but sometimes there is an unintended loss in your life that you might feel because of it. #swk315wwu https://t.co/neUS2kURwH

People coming close to retirement are always told to prepare financially, but what about mentally? #mentalhealth #retirement #identity #freetime #psychology

@porndaughter I do not, I think the concern for public safety takes precedence over confidentiality. Personally is someone is a violent treat I will be telling the authorities their names. Safety is the main concern. #swk315wwu #macrosw

[Jill Bowen @jillbowenSW]

@porndaughter A4: You can not force treatment. However, if we know someone is a violent threat, then as social workers we have an ethical responsibility to help them seek help. #swk315wwu #macrosw

@GiuseppinaLaMa3 @porndaughter There are mandatory courses to get their license. However, I do think you should have to keep updated on the courses! #swk315wwu #macrosw

[Jill Bowen @jillbowenSW]

@porndaughter I think we can all agree we want mass shooting to stop! How we are going to do that is what we need to figure out. I think both sides will have to give a little to get something done. #swk315wwu #macrosw

[Jill Bowen @jillbowenSW]

@hbland33 @porndaughter Agreed!

[Jill Bowen @jillbowenSW]

@porndaughter A2: Just because someone has a mental illness does not mean they are going to commit gun violence, and vice versa. Mental health community gets a bad wrap. Gun violence happens everyday by people who do not have mental health issues. #swk315wwu #macrosw

[Jill Bowen @jillbowenSW]

True fact! #macrosw #swk315wwu https://t.co/HBN2pdNwQx

[Jill Bowen @jillbowenSW]

@porndaughter A1: Advocating our lawmakers can always help change. Being aware what is happening in the news. We need to have strict background checks to help deter the wrong person from having a gun. #swk315wwu #macrosw

@BreeCavallone Just because someone is a manly man does not mean they are not susceptible to sexual abuse. #swk315wwu

I did not expect this. Having a crisis plan is important to help youth who think they might do something to harm themselves can help prevent the thought or to keep moving forward being a depressive time. #swk315wwu https://t.co/EPFh2i1oOt

@ShelbyClarkWWU I would hope that foster care systems are already doing a lot of research on placements to find the best one for a child! But good tips! #SWK315WWU

[Jill Bowen @jillbowenSW]

This report talks about developing a suicide monitoring tool specifically for the school setting. All the school social workers out there might be interested in reading this! Not only does it help monitor, but it helps students become more aware of their triggers. #swk315wwu https://t.co/z1jdwzmDCc

@StephanieBried2 Everyone should try to learn these signs. You might just save a life! #SWK315WWU

[Jill Bowen @jillbowenSW]

This is so cool! Using yoga, meditation, deep breathing, singing, dancing to help with trauma to stimulate your brain. I love dance and other arts, and this type of therapy can be so beneficial. Focusing your brain on something else. #SWK315WWU https://t.co/n7PuMPqzuZ
