I
have been a School Social Worker since 2011. Prior to that, I worked for Buncombe DSS as an investigative,
assessment, and treatment social worker. I am a proud Tar Heel and
attended UNC-Chapel Hill for both my Bachelor's Degree (2002) and
Master's of Social Work (2010).
School
Social Workers serve as the link between students' families and the
school. I collaborate with parents, guardians, teachers and other school
officials to ensure that students reach their academic and personal
potential to be globally productive citizens in the twenty-first
century. Supportive services are provided to students to motivate them
to be their best when they are faced with barriers such as: absenteeism,
abuse/neglect, pregnancy, addictions, poverty, homelessness, etc. Each
situation is assessed and individual plans are developed with the
student/family.
If
your family is experiencing any issue that you feel is impacting your
child's ability to do his or her best in school, please call or visit
me. I will be happy to listen and help in any way I can.
