Have you ever thought about the role of social workers in population health? The social work profession is uniquely positioned to play an increasingly significant role in reducing health disparities through prevention, integrated health care, and improving the social determinants of health (for example, housing, employment).

In this episode, I speak with Vickie Walsh, MSW. Vickie is a community health engagement manager at Findhelp.org. Find Help is a social services platform where you can search and connect to support. Financial assistance, food pantries, medical care, and other free or reduced-cost services in your area.

We talk about her journey into social work, how find help (aunt bertha) is making a positive impact, compassion fatigue, and much more!
