my "work" is getting better

hello, A lot has happened at my internship since my last post. I have gotten to do more hands on things, that gave me a look at what the work in the "field" is like. To this point i have had the oppertunity to go on 2 placements this is where they go do the paper work for children that have recently been placed in a home Sometimes this is also when the supervisor that does the intakes gets to meet the children. I have also had the oppertunity to go on a home visit with a clinician, this is when the clinician goes into their foster homes and basically does a check in with the foster parents and the foster children. Earlier this month i also had the oppertunity to go to Depelchins main camps in Memorial, it is 17 acres and beautiful. The reason we went there was that we had the oppertunity to go to a combined meetings of foster care ( meeting with all the foster care from all the campus's) these meetings were interesting because it gave us a look at a different aspect of what goes on in foster care... more of the behind the scenes stuff that can be rather tedious but at the same time it is some of the stuff that i find kinda interesting. The more i get to see the more i am thinking that this is what i want to do with my degree... do something in the foster care, adoption "arena".... i am also going to keep CPS in mind and do some research on what exactly is involved in working with CPS... right now i am keeping all doors open and keeping "my feelers" going exploring whats out there ....
