How To Write A Narrative Essay On Social Services

I only spent two nights with my first foster parent. She was genuinely sweet and helped me cope with the fact that this was only temporary. After a few days we went to visit my mother at rehab. We held each other tight and cried our sorrows away. Spilling all the sorry’s and I love you’s while we had the chance. Everything turned for the worse when we were driving back to my foster parent’s house. In a matter of seconds the front of the car was engulfed in flames. She was calling out to me to help her unbuckle her seatbelt, it was jammed. I escaped the car and started yelling until the neighbors scooped me up. I never heard from her again. I was released back into foster care. This time I was even more anxious to be put into a new family. I had no mother to turn to, and no one to help

I soon fell asleep and woke up to the sound of traffic and people yelling as if someone ate the last piece of pie on Thanksgiving. Being half sleep my eyes weren’t fully dilated so I couldn’t see but with one wipe and a closer look at the sign I see the words, “Lew Sterrett Justice Center”. We had arrived at the local jail of the Dallas County. As we walk to the entrance, I was so scared I grabbed papa hand hard as possible. We came to a huge black door with tinted windows so no one could see through. Papa pushed a big red button to the right of the door that mad a loud horn sound. Then the door slowly opened and revealed a room with a door, metal detector and two officers.

Throughout History Human Services made a big impact and a difference in our society as we know it today.

Human Services make positive and lasting differences in peoples' lives, and they help improve the world.

It is past midnight when loud banging sounds wake you. Something is wrong. All of a sudden, you hear the door being kicked down as the wood splinters and the glass shatters. Before you know it, the police have rushed into your home like a swarm of bees and have taken your parents into custody. Adding to this already bleak situation, a social worker has arrived and places you and your siblings into DHS custody. Since you have no other relatives to take care of you, you and your siblings are placed into the foster care system—in separate homes—without the ones you love most to comfort you.

It’s been a few weeks and it’s finally that day, it’s adoption day. We arrive at court all cheered up for this to finally be official. Before we walk into the room the judge says something to the foster parents and when they told me and my brother, I ran out of court and cried. They had said that on my birth certificate there was a different name for father, meaning I couldn’t get adopted. I told my brother to get adopted anyways I just wanted to know he was safe. I walked back in the courtroom with a smile on my face but i was dying on the inside.

I sat up and let out a gigantic yawn as I stretched my arms and legs. My body had felt as if I had slept in a box all night and was taking my first step out. I pulled my soft pink blanket up to my chin and wrapped it around me tightly. That was when I heard the scream and, nevertheless, the sound of my name followed. “Haylee. Haylee. Hurry downstairs. It’s Kassi.” I threw my blanket down and let it fall to the floor. I rushed down the stairs and saw my sister in just a Pull-Up, and on her knees crying for help. I pushed everyone to the side so I could grab her. She looked up at me with her big brown eyes, tears rolling down her face. That was when I saw the gash in her right eyebrow. It wasn’t like a tiny scrape you get when you fall, but it looked like she had a hole right above her eye. The

Today is the day that I go into another foster home, but this one is not an orphanage, it is an actual house with an actual loving family. "Welcome to the Butler 's house Lea.", my foster mom Kelly greeted me. She was a short blonde hair woman around the age of 40, she seemed nice. "Thank You..", I tried to sound polite, I was not used to getting nice attention from others. "This is my husband John." Kelly said. She than went on to introduce me to her kids, my new siblings. She introduced me to Sabrina and Harry first. Sabrina and Harry features were not the same, they were not like the mom and dad. She than called down Andrew, he was the

The social work profession and my life experiences have taught me that we all at one point of our lives have been in the position of asking for help. For some people asking for help may be an effortless task, but for others, asking for help may involve challenging cultural and family values. This paper will focus on a period in my life when asking for help signified a huge personal challenge, as I was taught growing up that I should keep my personal problems to myself and not involve third parties.

Going into Social work I had a brief idea of what was entailed to be an excellent social worker. After having known people to have awful experiences, myself included, and those who had great experiences, I came into Social Work with High hopes that I will be the best I can be. However, after two social worker practicums, jobs in the field, and graduating with a social worker diploma, I have discovered that a competent and professional social is much more complex, and challenging (I want a more positive word here) to achieve then I originally thought. What I am learning, is that being a professional and competent social worker requires not only the skills and techniques that are learned through education, but the ability to use theses skill

Having a strong desire to help others has been a part of me since an early age. As a social worker I feel that I will be extremely beneficial in this career choice because of my ability to have empathy and compassion for others in need. Often people find themselves in situations that often times do not come into mind for the individual. I can relate to a person in an unforeseen situation due to personal issues that were forced upon me. While dealing with these issues I was forced to apply for public assistance. Having to do this I often experienced the harshness of rude employees that made me feel that I was less than human. It was at that time that I decided that if given the opportunity I would do my best to make sure that anyone that I encounter that was in an unforeseen situation and I could possibly help. That I would do what was need to assure the person that there is a better future for them.

It was three a.m. in the morning, and I had just crawled into my comfy bed. Being that I was twenty one and working at Pizza Hut till one a.m. this was a normal ritual. I heard my phone text alert go off, but I just wanted to get some much needed sleep. Being it had to be a pointless text since it was so late I ignored it. Suddenly my phone ring, it was my younger sister, Amanda, who was seventeen at the time “You need to come get me from Amber’s house”, is all she said very quietly. “Wait it’s three in the morning and you want me to come get you?” Amanda started quickly talking about being at Amber’s house, a party and cops. By now I was anxiously awake, getting dressed and finding my keys. I didn’t know the whole story yet, but it
