The Social Work Success Path Podcast

A podcast dedicated to helping Social Workers, Therapist and Helping Professionals define their career success paths while increasing their income and making an impact. We don't have to choose! We help Social Workers drown out the noise of others, while attuning to that voice, calling them to more freedom in their careers without feeling boxed in to traditional Social Work roles. While social workers navigate through the 3 phases of professionalism, they learn how to design a career they love and teach what they know.

010 Financial Social Work with Reeta Wolfsohn 06/13/2022

010 Financial Social Work with Reeta Wolfsohn I had the pleasure of interviewing Reeta Wolfsohn, CMSW, creator of Financial Social Worker.com and the Financial Social Worker Certification Program. In my opinion, this program should be a foundational requirement in all Social Work programs! In the video Reeta explains how learning about finances is not just about dollars and cents, but is about unlearning patterns with money, your mindset around money and your overall relationship with money. This knowledge can then be translated to benefit your clients. If you are good with numbers or want to be more responsible with the money that you do earn, this is the perfect program for you. This is one of the MANY opportunities to better utilize your Social Work degree.

009: Passing Breonna's Law: Ending No Knock Warrants with Rep. Attica Scott 06/11/2022

009: Passing Breonna's Law: Ending No Knock Warrants with Rep. Attica Scott In this episode of the Afrocentric Social Worker Podcast we interviewed Kentucky State Rep. Attica Scott. | Black Social Work Podcast Two years ago, Breonna Taylor’s death was the result of a no-knock warrant served at her apartment on March 13, 2020, as part of a narcotics investigation. When officers arrived at her residence, they were shot at by her boyfriend, Kenneth Walker, who believed a break-in was happening. When officers returned fire, she was shot eight times. After Breonna's death, her family and other activists campaigned to ban no-knock warrants in Louisville. The city officially passed “Breonna’s Law,” which banned the use of those warrants. Some other police departments and cities have also started to move away from no-knock warrants. As of February 2022, there are 27 states with some kind of restriction on the use of no-knock warrants and 22 cities that have restrictions as well. A total of four states—Oregon, Connecticut, Virginia and Florida—have outright banned the use of no-knock warrants. Many of these bans and restrictions came after Taylor’s death. /episode/index/show/afrocentricsocialworker/id/23394848
