🏥✨ A glimpse into the world of Medical Social Work!

A huge thank you to Mrs. Arna Rattray and Ms. Nordia Lyons for sharing their expertise, experiences, and the realities of working in the medical field. 💜

Your insights gave our SWSA members a deeper understanding of the profession and inspired our future social workers to explore the many ways they can make a difference in healthcare. 🩺🤝🏽

Thank you for reminding us that Social Work has a place in every space! 💫

🎤✨ WE CAME. WE SPOKE. WE CONNECTED.

SWSA was in the room! 🇯🇲💜

Our members had the opportunity to participate in the Jamaicans for Justice (JFJ) Youth Speakers Bureau Training, joining passionate young leaders from across Jamaica for a day of human rights, advocacy, civic engagement, public speaking and meaningful conversations. 🗣️✊🏽

But it wasn’t just about learning — it was about collaboration. 🤝🏽

We’re grateful to Jamaicans for Justice (JFJ) for creating this space and look forward to continuing this partnership, strengthening our collective voice, and advocating for meaningful change across the different social issues affecting our communities. 🇯🇲✨
