Social Work, Public Policy, & CPS Advocacy – Episode 12 (Social Work Amplified Podcast)

Описание: Join us for episode 12 of the Social Work Amplified podcast where we will hear from Sarah Crockett, MSW and Director of Public Policy at Texas CASA, one of the largest volunteer organizations in Texas seeking to advocate in court for children in the foster care system!

After receiving her Bachelor’s Degree in Political Science from Northwest Nazarene University and her graduate degree in Social Work, concentrating in Social Policy and Program Evaluation, from the University of Michigan, Sarah began her career in social policy research and advocacy. She has a wealth of experience in this area that finally led to her position as the Director of Public Policy at Texas CASA. Sarah explains how much she enjoys her job in CPS policy advocacy because it’s a systems level career where she’s able to bring kids’ voices to the table to help lead policy change in the area of foster care.

In episode 12 of the Social Work Amplified podcast, Sarah dives into the need for social workers to understand the marriage of micro and macro social work. She describes how all social workers need to hone both their micro and macro skills to be able to effectively create social change. Join us for this powerful episode of the Social Work Amplified podcast! You won’t regret it!
