Social Work Month - Natalia

We honor Natalia and all Friends of Karen’s social workers today and every day. Their compassion, dedication and experience providing supportive counseling, illness education and financial assistance enables families to remain stable, functioning, and able to cope during their child’s illness. Thank you, Natalia for being so strong for others who need strength. Assisting Spanish-speaking families in their first language makes a significant difference. 

“How does your work as a social worker at Friends of Karen break barriers to care?”

Natalia: Friends of Karen’s social workers break barriers by ensuring that every family that reaches out for assistance is helped based on their present needs following the diagnosis of a child. We base our approach to social work on respect and kindness, and we understand the importance of cultural competency in service delivery.
