@lng0007 I agree! This class has taught me not only that it is important to be involved but HOW to be involved in different types of communities! #SOWK35021
Some big ideas from this class include functions of communities, how the interaction of individuals and groups can affect a whole community, and how to assess communities and work to address their strengths and weaknesses #SOWK35021
A skill that I learned this week was how to find community facts through the U.S. Census Bureau. This is helpful b/c I'm able to find valuable info that will contribute to the specific needs of each community. #SOWK35021
@ForebackGrace These times have been hard on everyone, from all sides of the world. It is more important now than ever to acknowledge the issue of mental health and work to solve it. #SOWK35021
@FialaKendra I agree! I feel our nation was moving in the right direction with the acceptance and inclusion of the LGBTQ+ community, but this bill pushed us way far back! #SOWK35021
This article discusses the increase in student suicide rates since the pandemic began. This article supports the dignity and worth of individuals. All students are struggling at this time and we need to know that we are not alone. #SOWK35021

@ashley_78938 I've always wanted to live close to the beach! Where I'm from, it's about 3 hours away. You must meet so many new people every summer! #SOWK35021
@Shawn_SOWK350 I have visited Rehobeth beach and it was so nice! I'm sure it was nice to live in a smaller, more quiet neighborhood but be able to have a fun and lively place not too far! #SOWK35021
I grew up in Germantown, Maryland. My community could be described as suburban, busy and diverse. According to https://t.co/Bl5zfiYeg9, Germantown is the 3rd most culturally diverse city in America. #SOWK35021
@sowk350 Very educational and powerful list! I agree, every woman should have the right to be in charge of her own body! Hopefully with this information, others will feel this way too! #SOWK35021
@Annapalindrome1 Great list! This can be helpful to everyone, including our community of college students, in order to gain information and find ways to prevent and report. #SOWK35021
@dailey_seth Love this infographic! There are so many people who believe these myths and it's so important to educate our community on the facts, especially if it affects 1 in 5 people! #SOWK35021
@Shawn_SOWK350 I think that it is very important to make everyone in the group feel important, especially when working with groups in a social work setting!
Characteristics of a good leader include communication, honesty, relationship building, innovation, etc. This is important within group practice because without a good leader, it is difficult to achieve success or even begin to work towards it. #SOWK35021 https://t.co/B7WVaFx2aw
@sowk350 Such a pressing issue. It can be hard to realize that it’s such a problem when you have the privilege & raising awareness is the most important part of combating the situation! Once people start to become educated, it is easier to promote solutions. #SOWK35021
