      I’m about to go into social work at at my university and eventually my overall goal is to have my own mobile social work business and be able to offer my services to those who don’t have insurance I just need help being able to do it all the right way. I don’t want to only provide to one type like I want to work with kids geriatrics etc

    As someone who never saw a future for herself but tried to anyway for the loved ones around me, I’ve definitely been a little “behind” in life than others, and felt pressured about that. I should be graduating from highschool this year, but mental health took a toll on me for years and it might take me a little longer than I’d like to get caught up on lost credits. But anyways, It took me a while to think of a career, because I never thought I’d make it to 18. Watching your videos and how well you explain Social Work, and the different kinds of Social Work is very helpful because this is the only field of work I’ve been interested in, so thank you very much! ❤️

    I truly appreciate the simplistic way you briefly broke down each group or area Social Workers work in and the different careers within each subset. I had no idea how much influence social workers could possibly have. However bureaucracy and pushback can occur, I hope to see a time where this influence has stronger legs to stand on so outcome and income are equitable.

    Hi there, this was a really great video, thank you so much for explaining the different roles of what a SW can do! I'm a military veteran and current Firefighter/Paramedic who has been in their own therapy for several years now. It truly has changed my life, and I am working on finishing my BA in Spanish in hopes to look into graduate programs. This video is really helpful because I know theres different routes you can take to become a therapist...but it seems an MSW is more broad than say an LPC or LMHC. again thank you, I can tell you are really passionate about this field! ☺

Thank for opening the eyes of those outside the field, so they to may be encouraged to look within to help determine whether they possess the gift to work along side us. Again thank you!

      @MillennialSocialWorker  4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      That is a great question. CPS is not your only option for work in the child and family services field. Depending on your level of education BSW or MSW, you can work as a school social worker, a therapist, a medical social worker to name a few.

    Can you please talk about the salary of social workers like your first salary, your previous, or that of other social workers you know without generalizing it by pulling up random range from the internet; that is something that concerns me a lot with going into the field. As it is not talked about a lot in the field. Thanks.

      Hello there. The amount of money you will make as a Social Worker will be based on your field, skills, specialty, certification(s), locations and years of experience . I will suggest using a website like www.salary.com to get a customized salary range.

    My college offers these 2 master degrees
    Social Work, Children and Family Services Concentration
    And
    Social Work, Mental Health Concentration
    Would either of those masters degrees I listed apply to the jobs you mentioned? Basically I’m asking are there actual social work master degrees that we should select or are the general or ones above okay?

    • @MillennialSocialWorker
      @MillennialSocialWorker  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The master's degrees in Social Work with concentrations in Children and Family Services and Mental Health should both be applicable to most of the jobs discussed in the video. Keep in mind that the Children and Family Services track is specific to that population. You can select the one that aligns best with your career goals and interests. Best wishes and thanks for watching!

      Thank you for watching. I don't have information on how to obtain a license in India. In the States, you have to fulfill certain licensing requirements to obtain a social work license. Please note each state's licensing requirements are different. Unfortunately, I am not able to provide advice on immigration. That is outside of my scope.

    If I got a scholarship that fully covers tuition at the #10 MSW in the nation (Boston U), but will need to take out 20,000ish in loans in order to pay living expenses (rent, food, etc), is it worth it?? I have no other debt at the moment. And plan to work part-time + live as modestly as possible.. I have lived in the South my whole life and this would be a big change for me but it feels like such an incredible opportunity that I can't pass up. What do you think?
