Unfortunately I can’t move to Utah!
I discovered your show last year and have come to really enjoy it. The recent episode on social work and gun violence had thoughtful perspective. I love how you guys are less idealistic and more realistic, sticking to the evidence base as a guide for what’s effective and what’s not. I also simply enjoy your banter…no joke, if I lived closer to you guys and Utah, I’d definitely be applying to work for Alpha! I think you guys would be fun to collaborate with!
Please :)
Can you PLEASE do an episode on juvenile offenders??? I’m a child welfare worker and we have so many kids (10-18) in SOMB for things like fondling siblings or “consensual” acts. I’m confused by how these cases are treated by the criminal justice system (in CO we arrest/convict at 10) and what treatment is like, as well as how likely these kids are to reoffend. I’m interested in your thoughts and any other info you have that would be informative for other social workers in my position!
Love this
Live this podcast! Funny and informative.
