Nicole Clark Consulting @NicoleClarkLMSW
A1a: My 1st year field placement was assigned to me by @ColumbiaSSW's field placement office. It was at a HIV/AIDS comprehensive care clinic. It was great because, while I had experience in HIV prevention, I had the opportunity to work more with people living with HIV #MacroSW
Jennifer A. Parga, MSW she/her(s) @SD_SocialWorker
@poliSW A1. As a student, I didn't know where I wanted to be (except social work). Having an open mind helped with the process! I ended up learning a lot! #MacroSW
👑Adrienne Garr👑 @adriennecgarr
@poliSW A1a. My 1st placement was with a the largest agency in WNY who serves the ID/DD population. It was more clinical than I had anticipated. My advanced year placement was with the VA and that was an amazing experience as well #MacroSW

A1a: My second year placement involved working with one of @ColumbiaSSW's professors, Dr. Rogério Pinto, on a community-based participatory research project. Great mezzo/macro experience and paved the way for me to do the consulting work I do now. #MacroSW #socialwork
Kristin Battista-Frazee @porndaughter
Q1a. My first-year placement was at a drug treatment center and my second year was at a hospital. Students during my time didn't have much input in the process. Now it is much different. I learned a great deal at both places. #MacroSW
Linda Grobman - The New Social Worker @newsocialworker
A1b: We had list of placements. I believe we chose our top 2 or 3 and then if they were interested, we interviewed with them. #MacroSW
👑Adrienne Garr👑 @adriennecgarr
