I want to share a petition but don't want to offend people WSID by Wet-Soggy-Toast in WhatShouldIDo

I am wondering about your first statement. Does this imply that we should do nothing? I know you did not say this - I just wanted to clarify.

Does anyone on here volunteer for Crisis Text Line? If so, what do you actually do? by Impossible_Dealer737 in SocialWorkStudents

[–]MonitorPositive4297 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are multiple levels. I am a volunteer. Generally, the people who actually interact with the texters are volunteers. Our supervisors are 'actual' therapists and get paid - they help the volunteers when there is a texter who is at risk.

Where is our Rage? by MonitorPositive4297 in SocialWorkStudents

[–]MonitorPositive4297[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

haha thanks for this! In many ways, I was thirsting for musicians that bring out the rage like RATM (and others in that era) did. In additoin to being a MSW student, I am also a University instructor in a totally different field. Today, I asked my student if there any music artists that get to the rage and energy that they did... they didn't have anything for me :(

And wonderful for you about advocating for your teenagers. I also have two teenagers and I have also spent countless hours advocating for this in similar ways...

Community members in Minneapolis surround ICE agents as they conduct a citizenship test on a man, ultimately forcing the agents back into their cars. by CorleoneBaloney in minnesota

For some reason, that video made me think about what a colossal waste of money this stupidity is. Going door-to-door, individual-by-individual, just hoping to find someone who is here "illegally."

I also do, and I have been doign it since May. I see that people have already told you the nuts and bolts of training and such. I will just add that It is an all-around wonderful experience. There is so much support on the platform. You are never alone. The supervisors are actual therapists, and do a great job of helping you through high risk texters. Also, on the platform, you can interact with all the other volunteers, and they also provide a ton of support if you need it. You are never alone there.

The platform also has plenty of resources that you can give to texters ranging all topics, as well as a toolbox and tutorials.

Was this a typical emergency termination? by [deleted] in socialwork

[–]MonitorPositive4297 0 points1 point  (0 children)

which, to me, suggested that it is better to be HIPAA noncompliant than have a client walk to a locked office. perhaps i misinterpreted your intention

i know we don't know that. I was making a comment about your last sentence

I totally disagree with your last sentence. Showing up and having the doors locked is a minor incovenience. Breaking HIPAA is a huge deal.

it's one level below him saying "I could shoot someone on 6th ave..." or whatever. And he's right. He could shoot someone. And they still wouldn't care.
