School social worker

As I was sitting in my car parked in front of my house, watching my tears fall drop for drop while the rain pelted against my windshield, I asked myself why did this have to happen? Why did my mother have to pass away? I felt like the world came crashing down on me, but I had to be the strong one and hold my family together. In the end, I found that the bravery I was trying to display was only hurting me. I stepped out of the car and peered over my shoes and as the water came streaming down to the

say that I have been dreaming of going into social work since I was a little girl or that I was raised in a life filled with social work careers. I would be lying if I said that. But I will say that reflecting on my childhood, my high school years, and even into my adult life, working with children and being a part of the social work field, is something that I should have been aiming for since day one. When thinking about why I want to go into social work and why I want to specialize in a specific

Yaira N. Beras Statement of Objectives The College at Brockport Graduate School Degree Objective: Master of Social Work (MSW) A few years ago, if anyone asked me to define social work, I could only answer with the vague “helping the community”. My experiences in the military led to significant change to these assertions and views and this simplistic view of social work began to evolve into more complex definitions.
