In this episode, we speak with Dr. Jonathan Singer, LCSW, an associate professor of social work at Loyola University Chicago, President of the American Association of Suicidology and coauthor of the 2015 Routledge text, Suicide in Schools: A Practitioner's Guide to Multi-level Prevention, Assessment, Intervention, and Postvention. Dr. Singer is the founder and host of the award-winning Social Work Podcast (www.socialworkpodcast.com), the first podcast by and for social workers. We share the ups and downs of technology and podcasting in the social work field, and we talk about the ethics of policy and politics in direct practice spaces.
