This year, we continue our partnership with Hennepin County to be able to have an embedded field unit within Child Protection and Child Welfare units at Minnesota’s largest county. Last Tuesday, the students had their first official day at Hennepin and in between orientation sessions they attended a “Welcome lunch”, which included Hennepin Social Work Task Supervisors/mentors and IV-E alum. We had almost 40 people in attendance and it was a great opportunity to welcome the students and start off their internship with the chance to meet and connect with Hennepin Social Workers representing a wide range of child protection and child welfare units. Many thanks to Hennepin County and its fantastic social work staff for supporting a new cohort of MSW IV-E students!
