“I found an internationally-acclaimed university with staff who literally wrote the books that I will be studying. Wurzweiler for me was a very direct and current way to re-learn the whole systems of social work."

“What drew me to Wurzweiler is that we’re the only group work major in the country. I thought that I need to have that background and that foundation."

"Wurzweiler resonates with me because working with children and their families fulfills my passion for helping vulnerable people. The support, guidance, and opportunities offered by Wurzweiler’s academics and staff demonstrate the sense of camaraderie and shared purpose within the social work community which is truly inspiring." 

"I'm passionate about my work, making a difference, creating equal opportunities, and advocating for those who are in difficult circumstances."

"I am passionate about working with children, young adults and families. I am also highly involved in research exploring arts-based approaches, specifically digital storytelling. I hope to continue my research in arts-based approaches to care, and how it provides people with creative and unique ways of expression. "

"The Trauma Informed Practice certificate has expanded my ability to understand and support individuals and communities dealing with trauma, and I'm looking forward to using this expertise and knowledge to make a meaningful difference in the field of social work."

"After moving from Israel to the US 13 years ago, I found my calling as a sexual educator. This journey inspired me to pursue an MSW degree at Wurzweiler School of Social Work, with an additional emphasis on the Trauma Informed Practice certificate. I believe in bridging cultures, empowering through education, and dedicating myself to a path of compassion and transformation."

"I pride myself on developing strong relationships with those I interface with and believe that a strong rapport is the foundation for engaging challenging and complex human conditions. Through my service with the Wurzweiler Care Café program and other community activities, I continue to develop skills which serve some of city's most vulnerable populations in areas such as domestic violence, child abuse and neglect."

"I was looking for an education that would elevate my social work skills clinically, academically, and administratively. The DSW program at Wurzweiler is just that!"

"When attending the open house, I was drawn to Wurzweiler due to trauma practice being part of the DSW curriculum. With this knowledge base, my work with children in schools could be impactful."

"I was drawn to Wurzweiler's DSW program because of its focus on clinical practice, which is a passion of mine. I also love the flexibility of remote and hybrid classes and the resources offered, such as mentorship support, financial scholarships, and access to NYC-based programs and professors."
