This week, we honored the dedicated and compassionate school social workers who work tirelessly to empower individuals, families, and communities. Social workers are often the unsung heroes, providing support in times of need, advocating for justice, and promoting well-being in the face of adversity. We are extremely thankful for our school social worker, Kaitlyn Wilson, and her intern, Alexandra Harris. Thank you to all the social workers who make a difference every day, offering hope, guidance, and care. Your work doesn't go unnoticed, and we appreciate everything you do to improve lives and create a better world. 💙 #NationalSchoolSocialWorkerWeek
