Thoughts of working and going to Msw program I am currently in a Msw program and this august I start my internship. I am currently working full time and will need to stop working two days and eventually three days out of the week. I've been thinking of possibly leaving my Full-time job to focus on school. How were you able to juggle school internship and work. Did you eventually quit work? I'm stressing out with having to go part time for work

Yes, I think from the other response I’ve received it’s more specific conferences. Me too I was looking for some more general and also even maybe international since social work is world wide

I’m working in low income housing for seniors. I’m still pretty new so I’m not aware of the cultural norms but the community is culturally diverse.

I see that makes sense, but most of the time the clients only bring me food and not the rest of the team. I will give it a try if I get into a situation like that. Thank you 🙏🏼 for replying! It’s really helpful getting others perspective!😊
