As a Black woman who’s a social worker, it’s refreshing to know I’m not the only one with thoughts regarding my way of delivering services (non-traditional way)—I welcome transparency with all of my clients. I’m glad I’m not alone with my frustrations in the field as well. Keep up the awesome work.
