Na Lesli Senesac, Msimamizi - Uhifadhi wa Familia Nyumbani<\/p>\n

\u201cUnataka kufanya nini na maisha yako?\u201d ni swali ambalo sote lazima tutafakari wakati fulani. Vyuo vikuu, shule za upili na hata wanafunzi wa shule za upili wanaulizwa kufanya chaguo la taaluma mapema na mapema. Kwa baadhi yetu, kugundua njia yetu ya maisha huja kwa urahisi na kwa wengine ni ngumu zaidi. Nilijua nilitaka kuwa Mfanyakazi wa Jamii katika shule ya msingi, lakini sikujua hiyo ndiyo inaitwa. Nilijua tu nilitaka kusaidia watoto.<\/p>\n

Kazi ya Kijamii ni mojawapo ya kazi adhimu na nyingi, lakini watu wengi bado wanafikiri wafanyakazi wa kijamii wameinua miwani ya rangi na kutoa jibini la serikali. Wakati kwa kweli, wafanyakazi wa kijamii wana msukumo bora zaidi wa mapambano ya watu waliotengwa. Nikiwa katika mpango wangu wa MSW, nilitambua ni mambo ngapi tofauti ningeweza kufanya na shahada yangu - kufanya kazi na watoto na watu wazima ambao wamepitia unyanyasaji, wanakabiliwa na ugonjwa wa akili, au wanapitia masuala ya matumizi mabaya ya dawa za kulevya. Ikiwa unataka kusaidia wengine na kuamini kuwa watu wanaweza kubadilika, ninakuhimiza kufanya hivyo\u00a0kuzingatia taaluma ya kijamii<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Zifuatazo ni baadhi ya sifa ambazo wafanyakazi wa kijamii wanazo:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Unaona thamani na thamani ya kila mtu.<\/li>\n
  2. Unaamini watu wote wanaweza kubadilika.<\/li>\n
  3. Unaona mapungufu katika jumuiya yako na unataka kutetea mabadiliko.<\/li>\n
  4. Unatumia ujuzi wa kufikiri kwa makini.<\/li>\n
  5. Una huruma.<\/li>\n
  6. Watu wanakuambia kuwa wewe ni msikilizaji mzuri.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Wafanyakazi wa kijamii wako kila mahali na sehemu ya kitambaa katika jumuiya zetu. Utapata wafanyakazi wa kijamii shuleni, vituo vya kurekebisha makosa, hospitali, huduma za nyumbani, makao ya unyanyasaji wa nyumbani, mashirika ya kijamii, hospitali ya wagonjwa, ushauri wa kibinafsi, ushawishi wa mabadiliko ya kijamii, afya ya akili, matumizi mabaya ya madawa ya kulevya, na orodha inaendelea na kuendelea. Nimeweza kufanya kazi katika maeneo mengi tofauti kwa sababu ya kubadilika kwa digrii ambayo labda ndicho kitu ninachopenda zaidi kuhusu taaluma.<\/p>\n

    Ikiwa unataka kufanya kazi na watu wenye nia kama hiyo ambao wanaunga mkono na wanaohusika katika shughuli zinazokuhimiza na kukushangaza, kazi ya kijamii inaweza kuwa kazi kwako. Ikiwa unapenda ratiba ya kazi inayoweza kunyumbulika na siku zako zisiwe sawa, usifikirie zaidi ya kazi ya kijamii. Ikiwa ungependa kusaidia kuleta mabadiliko katika jumuiya yako, angalia jinsi unavyoweza kuwa mfanyakazi wa kijamii\u00a0hapa<\/a>.<\/p>\n
