Ariana Julian

Ariana Julian I am wondering what NASW is doing to help SWs with the job market. In CA, its disastrous. There are some County or State jobs bvut they are very difficult to actually apply for. I have 5 years post degree experieince and I cannot take the licensure exam. Few employers have LCSWs who can offer supervision. Its a mess.

I say a prayer and think a lot about my dad who served in WWII. I also read a lot of the articles and community events that are going on even if I can't attend.

Again, I am not going to post on Socialworkspeak.com...I am on FB, so I am posting on FB. I think that Rihanna's interview was AWESOME - so genuine. I think others will support her, and speak out on their understanding of the issue, whether it is through personal or vicarious (friends, family) experience. Rihanna is so captivating to watch, so beautiful - one might think that violence could not happen to her. Surely seeing her before pic and now have made an impact.

I feel she's being very honest about the struggle over staying or going. God bless this strong woman who wasn't going to let someone lie, cheat, beat & get one over!
