Welcome to a special edition of the Grieve Love Heal Podcast, where we delve deep into the poignant work being done at Valerie's House in honor of Social Work Month. This month, we shine a spotlight on the dedicated social workers who play a crucial role in providing mental health care across the country, with a particular focus on their work at Valerie's House.Honoring Social Work MonthThroughout March, Social Work Month, we celebrate the impactful work of social workers who serve as frontline providers in our communities. At Valerie's House, social workers are integral to our mission of supporting grieving families and children, meeting them where they are, and providing nonjudgmental, compassionate care.Meet Amy StromWe had the privilege of speaking with Amy Strom, Vice President of Partnerships and Operations at Valerie's House, to gain insights into her journey in social work and her profound impact. Inspired by her father, a social worker and university professor, Amy embarked on a path marked by empathy and dedication, striving to empower individuals to meet their own needs and fostering the next generation of social workers.Amy's Journey to Valerie's HouseAmy's introduction to Valerie's House was serendipitous, with a coworker leading her to the place where she would channel her passion for community service. Since 2016, she has been vital in growing the organization from a single group to a multifaceted support system that reaches across the state, serving thousands of children and families. Her commitment underscores the idea that social work isn't just a profession; it's a way of life.Building Community and Empowering FamiliesThe work done at Valerie's House transcends traditional support; it creates a home-like environment where families can openly express their grief without stigma. The support groups are structured to build community and provide strength, ensuring that no child grieves alone. At the heart of this work are practices drawn from social work principles, centered around meeting families where they are and empowering them to navigate life's challenges.The Role of Social WorkersSocial workers at Valerie's House and beyond are dedicated to creating environments where healing can begin, listening actively to the needs of families, and fostering connections that empower both children and their caregivers. Their roles are not limited to individual support but extend to advocating for systemic change and addressing broader social justice issues.Training the Next GenerationAmy Strom plays a pivotal role in shaping future social workers, serving as a qualified supervisor and adjunct professor at Florida Gulf Coast University. By sharing her wealth of knowledge and experience, she ensures that upcoming social workers are well-equipped to address the diverse needs of their communities with empathy and ethical practice.A Commitment Beyond CareerFor Amy, and many like her, social work is more than a career; it's a lifelong commitment to helping others navigate their most challenging times. Her story is a testament to the enduring impact one individual can have in shaping hopeful futures.Join the MovementAs we reflect on the incredible work being done at Valerie's House, we invite you to consider how you might support or get involved with similar initiatives. The fulfillment found in helping others and witnessing their growth can replenish your own spirit, as Amy so beautifully illustrates.In closing, we deeply appreciate Amy Strom and all social workers for their tireless dedication to fostering healing, community, and hope.Support the show

Kelsunn Communications, Inc. Invites you to enjoy this tribute to the Profession of Social Work and a salute to all the professional social workers in the country. Thank you for all that you do. Happy Social Work Month!!!! https://youtu.be/iY-wbrvhKHU This year's Social Work Month theme is “Social Work Breaks Barriers,” to highlight how social workers have enriched our society by empowering people and communities to overcome hurdles that prevent them from living life to the fullest. The annual Social Work Month campaign in March is a time to inform public, policymakers, and legislators about how social workers have always broken barriers when it comes to the services they provide in an array of sectors, including hospitals and mental health centers, federal, state, and local government, schools, community centers, and social service agencies. People become social workers because they have a strong desire to help others and make society a better place. Social work is one of the fastest growing professions in the United States, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). More than 700,000 professional social workers are hard at work nationwide, but that number is expected to rise to almost 800,000 by 2030, BLS said.

March is Social Work Month! We thought that the best way to celebrate that fact is to get one of the best young social workers in the country to come in and speak on a day in the life of a social worker. We spoke to Licensed Master Social Worker, Kanisha Scott AKA "The Social Work Fairy" and she walked us through the good, the bad, the happy, and the sad when it came to being a social worker in 2022. If I were you, I'd get a pen and some paper because you're going to want to write down what this genius has to say.

Today we're celebrating Social Work Month with a conversation with Kier Vickery who is the director of our Marion County AL Department of Human Resources. • Social workers are a vital part of our community by connecting people to resources and today we talk about ways we can partner with our local DHR to help those in our community, specifically in the area of foster care. • If you'd like to learn more about becoming a foster parent or just have a few questions, you can contact the Marion County DHR at (205) 921-6000. • What's Next God?
