Carrie Littlefield Syvertsen is the 2020 National School Social worker of the year. She was recognized last March and her chance to be on a national stage with the leaders of the US Government recognizing her and her contributions was cancelled. So instead of going to DC for her awards ceremony, she was quarantined with two small children and having to homeschool. Her professional expertise gave me so much insight on what kids are dealing with - especially middle schoolers - and what as parents we can look for as warning signs as our kids re enter school and life. There is nothing more right in front of parents than this transition for our kids, and this episode was meant to help you all be able to better support your children
