    About this ebook

    After suffering the early loss of her father and subsequent family upheaval, she gravitated toward a life of helping others. From small Maine towns to the plains of Colorado, from San Diego to Northern California, for forty-two years she worked with a variety of people. Linda Converse has worked with adoptive parents, military families, dialysis patients, parents of children with various disabilities and clients with mental health problems.

    Anyone interested in learning more about social work as a career will witness the roles social workers play and see the depth of this profession. Get a first-hand view of some of the struggles and rewards social workers face as they walk the human journey alongside their clients.
