Social Worker at Safy

Coming out of retirement

Im interested in re entering the job market. I have my MSW but I'd prefer not to work in management. Social services including even simple case management would be great. I'd like not to have to work long hours again (10 + hours per day was not enjoyable). Here is my experience if you need it: Emergency room pediatric social worker at Bronx municipal hospital (5 years) Emergency room evening shift for 5 ERs at Presbyterian hospital in Manhattan. (2 years) Family Services Worker in the Quinault Indian Nation (2 years) Mental health therapist in the Quinault Indian Nation (3 years) Therapist and family youth specialist at SAFY ..specialized alternatives for family and youth (a foster care agency). I retired five years ago to become an artist and I've done well (theimpossiblechild.etsy.org) I hate the isolation of being an artist and miss being around people. So I thought I'd get a job again. My skills are with people. My deficits are with numbers. I admire cashiers! I'd like to make around $15.00 per hour if that is possible.

If you like to work with children, try juvenile placements/ juvenile shelters/ juvenile hall too! Some of those places have social workers work on site. Several group homes/ juvenile placements have 30 day shelters on site for children as well.
