You are looking at a proud law student about to intern this summer at Advancement Project! Advancement Project is a civil rights organization that utilizes a movement-lawyering and community-centered racial justice approach to support grassroots movements in communities of color across the country. I will work in their 3 focus areas: - Power & Democracy Program: to protect our right to vote and ensure that voting is free, fair, accessible, and inclusive. - Justice Project: challenges systems of policing, incarceration, and criminalization.- Opportunity to Learn Program: examines, exposes and reforms practices that lead to the criminalization of students and challenges the privatization of public education.I am THRILLED to be participating in their vision of "a future where people of color are free – where they can thrive, be safe and exercise power." {Alt text describes this photo, which I took immediately after my interview. I had no sense of whether I would be offered the internship, but I wanted to solidify my absolute joy at the privilege of connecting with a dream organization!} #RacialJustice #CivilRights #VotingRights #JusticeForAll

In recognition of School Social Worker Week, let's explore the path to becoming a social worker and delineate the distinctions between a School Social Worker and a School CounselorHave you ever considered the path to becoming a social worker? Prospective school social workers are typically required to attain both a bachelor’s and a master’s degree in social work, supplemented by a school internship experience. It's important to note that specific requirements may vary from state to state.Do you know what distinguishes a school counselor from a school social worker? Understanding the distinction between a school social worker and a school counselor is vital. While school counselors primarily aid students in achieving academic goals through individual or group counseling sessions, school social workers specialize in providing individualized support to students for improved academic and social performance.#NationalSchoolSocialWorkWeek#SSWWeek2024#MaximStaffing#SchoolStaffing#SchoolJobs#EducationServices
