Are you making the most of your social work degree?  While many of us know about roles in mental health, child welfare, medical social work and case management, social work offers a wealth of opportunities beyond the traditional paths.  One exciting option you may not have explored yet is travel social work.

In this episode, we dive into the world of travel social work with Angela Thompson, a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who has spent over six years thriving as a travel medical social worker across the United States.  Known as Queen A, Angela shares her experiences in healthcare settings and offers valuable advice for social workers ready to break into this dynamic field.

If you’re curious about how you can combine your passion for helping others with the excitement of travel, this episode is for you!

Be sure to check out Angela’s book, “So You Want to Be a Travel Social Worker? Say Less!”, and follow her on Instagram @travelsocialworkcoach

Social workers of color face immense challenges—systemic racism, underfunding, and overwhelming caseloads. They work tirelessly to support others but often lack the support they need. That’s why we created the Queens of Social Work Podcast—a lifeline and safe space for social workers of color to vent, share, laugh, and find the resources they need to thrive.

The  QOSW Daily Journal and our Royally You Interactive Journal for yourself will help you get all of your thoughts out and reflect on what’s next for you. For all of the budding social workers and those wanting to know more about social work in a healthcare setting, check out our Guide for ER Social Workers also for sale on Amazon and go to our website queensofsocialwork.net for your queens of social work merch! It makes a great gift.
