The numbers of people needing help are growing all the time, and our caseloads are often very high. We need to become better partners with the political world so that we can identify ways to address some of the basic problems and issues people are facing whether that be children, teens, parents, or the elderly. I am concerned about health care in our country. Somehow, we need to be sure that any American who needs social-work kinds of services is able to get them. I also am excited about our future because people are getting more and more open about talking about issues related to social work and social workers.
Social workers have many options for places to work.
