Today's Social Worker Spotlight is on Kendra! Q. What is your favorite part of being a social worker with Boundless? A. My favorite part is working with the kids every day. I like getting to be a support for them through their ups and downs and come alongside them to help them learn new skills. Q. What inspired you to go into social work? A. I went into social work because I really wanted to work with people. I was interested in psychology in college but was struggling to find a career I could do with a psychology degree. I took a healthcare exploration class in college, thinking maybe I could be a nurse. But I learned what social work was, and I felt like it was exactly what I had wanted to do in the first place. Q. What is one myth about being a social worker you want to bust? A. Before I knew what social work was, I thought it was just CPS, and they come to take your kids away. Before I started studying social work, I didn't know how broad the field was. Social workers do all kinds of things, from advocacy to therapy to connecting people with resources.
