@AtkinsTyanna Kicking people to the streets despite possible numerous instabilities and unemployment from the pandemic is going to cause far more problems than keeping protections in place on evictions. That's insane.
The U.S. may finally have turned a corner in the Covid-19 pandemic: Coronavirus cases, deaths and hospitalizations have been declining, while more than 40% of adults are now fully vaccinated https://t.co/3ctyF5j6mT
While many are still dealing with the negative impacts from the pandemic, it's important to still take care of our mental health. There are always ways to help those struggling #SUSocialWork
@jreed1201 As tired as I am of wearing the mask, I continue to do it for that light at the end of the tunnel for this pandemic. The importance of the vaccine and the mask could help to end this sooner rather than later.
With May being Mental Health Month, it's important to understand how powerful spoken words are and how big of a negative impact they can have on someone. Here's the suicide prevention hotline for anyone struggling: 1-800-273-TALK. #Susocialwork
It’s #MentalHealth Awareness Month, so here’s a reminder:
Words are powerful.
Words have lasting impacts on mental health + self-esteem.
Words can contribute to internalized criticism that’s difficult to un-learn.
Be aware. Be better.
I am shocked that the DNA on the murder weapon was never tested. It's incredibly sad to think that 6% of prisoners nationwide are wrongfully convicted of crimes. #Susocialwork
Ledell Lee was executed by lethal injection in Arkansas in 2017. Four years later, new DNA testing revealed that genetic material on the murder weapon — which was never previously tested — in fact belongs to another man, lawyers said.

Some inspiration from Katherine Johnson, a woman who helped put the first man on the moon, yet was mostly overlooked.
As a Black woman, she persisted in the face of discrimination and sexism.
Her legacy will continue to inspire generations of women and girls. #NationalSpaceDay
@AnnieBennett_SU Our healthcare system is not only heartbreaking but infuriating. People are pushed away from seeking help because of the cost and it should not be that way.
@_mikaliartice I know a few people that still don't take COVID seriously and it's insane. As long as we take social distancing, masks, and vaccinations seriously, the numbers could start to lower.
@ArianaRuetten I think it's absurd that drivers aren't held accountable for that. Injuring protestors is not the answer. I agree, it just makes me shake my head.
The US Justice Department is launching a federal civil probe into policing practices in Minneapolis following the murder convictions of former officer Derek Chauvin in the death of George Floyd.
Here are some of the cases the DOJ may look into. https://t.co/yxwDITqOmr
These little ones are waiting for their vaccinations in Cameroon.
COVID-19 has disrupted our daily lives but we mustn't let it disrupt our children's routine vaccines.

Advocating for equal rights and opportunities for all women and girls for generations to come is crucial for taking action against the 12 most critical areas.
#GenerationEquality is our collective call to action.
We need to provide greater political, public and financial support to activists and civil society movements and to their efforts to fight against all forms of oppression.
Child abuse continues to be a massive social problem in the U.S. and the pandemic has only made the circumstances worse for children who aren't able to feel safe or protected at school.
An @AP data analysis has found that child abuse reports in the U.S. plummeted during the pandemic. Experts says it's not that abuse isn't happening. Children aren't in school, where many reports originate. When cases surface now, sometimes it's too late. https://t.co/jtiy3zzXdB
