Aging Matters" According to “The Urban Institute”: https://www.urban.org/. The number of Americans ages 65 and older will more than double over the next 40 years, reaching 80 million in 2040. The number of adults ages 85 and older, the group most often needing help with basic personal care, will nearly quadruple between 2000 and 2040.  According to the “National Council on Aging's report from October 2023: (https://www.ncoa.org/article/get-the-facts-on-healthy-aging) Nearly 56 million Americans are 65 and older, with projections estimating that the population of older adults will grow to 94.7 million in 2060. On average, a 65-year old can expect to live another 17 years. For most older adults, good health ensures independence, security, and productivity as they age.

This Podcast Interview with the Late Dr. Mildred C. Joyner, LCSW affectionately known as "Mit" was originally released on December 23, 2021. At the time Dr. Joyner was President of the National Association of Social Workers (NASW). She finished her 3-Year Term on June 30, 2023, literally 9 Days before her untimely passing. Kelsunn Communications, featuring the "Kelsunn-on-the-Air" Social Work Podcast was fortunate to be graced with Dr. Joyner's presence, insight, and wisdom to launch this critically important series called   "Raise-the-Wage" - The Case for More Equitable Pay for Social Workers and other Human Service Professionals.  During this interview Dr. Joyner made the case eloquently about the need for Social Workers to get paid more equitably. She also stated that individuals can get paid very well with a Social Work degree, and when they do they need to let it be known that they are Social Workers. We invite you all to listen to this podcast interview in its entirety as it serves as a lasting tribute to the "Power & Passion" of Dr. "Mit" Joyner and Her Love of Humanity and Social Work. "We Honor Her Memory - We Continue Her Legacy".

Some of us are blocked from our greatness because of ourselves! Someone might have told us we couldn't have it, it didn't make sense or that it wasn't realistic and we believed them. Or we told ourselves it was too much or too hard and also believed that. In this episode Joi makes a commitment to herself to have the life she envisions. What about you? What does your future you look like? What do they do? What are they like? Thank you for helping The Joi of Social Work Podcast in reaching #3 of the Top 40 Social Work Podcasts!!!!

Something about social work, social work podcast. Look that up straightforward. And it's a great podcast. You're the past president of the American association of suicide-ology and co-author of the 2015 rutlidge text, which you can expand on that. Someone like me doesn't know what that is.

Right. And speaking of empathy, right? You have these kids and their families that are going through really, really intense times. And one of the most powerful things that you can do when you're working with somebody that's in that kind of crisis, is to let them know that you get where they are, right. That you, [00:03:00] want to hear their story and that when they tell you their story, you don't say something Insulting like, oh yeah, man, I've been there too. Right.

Leadership is tested during times of crisis, controversy and social unrest. The best leaders rise to the occasion and can create opportunities for meaningful and lasting change. In the world of suicide prevention, voices of activists are challenging established ways of doing things, and in many ways the field is at a crossroads. Many are finding themselves re-examining the questions and methods of our research, the protocols of some of our “treatments” and crisis services, and the systemic racism and other social determinants of suicide that have not received enough attention.In this interview, I have the honor of interviewing Dr. Jonathan Singer, the current President of the American Association of Suicidology, who has weathered many transitions and challenges during his leadership tenure with grace and significant impact. He shares his story of how he became the leader he is today and invites others to find their voices to change the field to be more inclusive and effective.About Dr. Jonathan SingerSinger 2020 B&W.pngJonathan B.
