This field can be exciting. You just never know what is around the corner. It does require that your spirit be open, flexible and brave. We do run into situations that are unbearable for our clients. They come to us full of fear and paralyzed. It is our training and experience that needs to come forth to model courage, a stance that our clients have forgotten due to being overwhelmed or physically/emotionally hurt.
To practice standing up to the plate of courage is critical in our field. We deal with all kinds of issues such as family violence, human trafficking, drug trafficking and people seeking political asylum. These are no simple social issues. They are to be taken seriously and with great caution. Good training, collaboration and being a person of peace will help you get to where you need to go in the arena of social work.
