Rose,
ReplyDeleteI can clearly see that your heart is with the youth of our society in your current position and prospects for the future. Will you get a degree is social work, too? There are so many possibilities out there if we are willing to move to them. I chose organizations where I felt I could become a member so I could incorporate them into my community of practice.
