    "How one consulate worker risked her freedom to save a triple amputee

    More immigrants are ending up in humanitarian crises with no safety net. Overworked social workers are sometimes their only saviors.

    Saday Osorio Cordoba’s job as the sole social worker at the Colombian consulate in San Francisco has never been what you’d call easy. Her client base spans not just California but Alaska, Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, and Colorado. According to the latest census, 36,000 Colombian nationals live in these states, but Osorio Cordoba guesses it’s closer to 250,000. If something goes wrong for them, it often lands on her plate.

    She helps find Colombians who are missing or trafficked, detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement, separated from their families, or are critically ill and desperate to leave the U.S. and return home.

    President Donald Trump’s reelection has made consulate work more difficult than ever, especially for those representing countries with large contingents of immigrants in the U.S. Now the workers in these agencies are not only handling passport and visa paperwork but are acting as first responders at the front lines of emergency services amid the immigration crisis."

  3. Social Workers Excluded as Public Safety Personnel

    casw-acts.ca/en/social-workers

    > Ottawa, ON — November 26, 2025 — The Canadian Association of Social Workers (CASW) is calling on the Government of Canada to formally recognize social workers as Public Safety Personnel (PSP).

    "Without supporting social workers’ mental health, Canada undermines its ability to provide effective trauma responses, not only for PSP but also for their families” concludes Whitenect.

  4. #SocialWorkers ‘ignored’ in federal budget, says national association | CBC News

    cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundlan

    > The Canadian Association of Social Workers says this year’s federal budget falls short on upholding a promise made in 2024.

  5. #Trump must release millions in #grants meant to address the shortage of #MentalHealth workers in #schools, a federal judge ruled.

    #Congress funded the program after the 2022 #Uvalde #SchoolShooting. The grants were intended to help schools hire more #counselors, #psychologists & #SocialWorkers, & focus on rural & underserved areas. But Trump’s admin opposed #diversity considerations used to award the grants & told recipients they wouldn’t continue past Dec 2025.

    Zohran Mamdani's Win Is the Beginning of the End of the Old Democratic Party

    Mamdani’s NYC primary victory shows that the old tricks of the political establishment are dying out—and something new is being born.

    by Hamilton Nolan, June 25, 2025

    Excerpt: "What, exactly, is the scary socialism of Zohran Mamdani that all of the #billionaires are screaming about from their high towers? #FreeBuses. #LowerRents. #PublicChildcare. Higher minimum wage. #SocialWorkers for homeless people instead of cops. Better grocery stores. Ahh! No! Not… not… all of these common sense ideas that the vast majority of NYC residents would be happy for! Anything but that!

    "There is a limit to the political effectiveness of #RichMen who have servants telling regular people that their lives cannot be better. We may have reached that limit. The threat of the rich is that they will flee the city. The flaw in their leverage is that almost nobody likes them anyhow.

    "Zohran’s campaign was distinguished by its determination to treat voters as adults. When accused of ​'defunding the police,' Mamdani took the time to explain that he wants to create a department of mental health experts and social workers to take work off the NYPD’s plate. When accused of #antisemitism, he took the time to forthrightly distinguish that smear from valid criticism of the massacre in #Gaza. He was, often, more adult than the political press covering him, which is trained to treat dishonest attack lines as sporting challenges rather than as things to be dismissed. The youngest candidate in this race acted with the most maturity. The oldest, #AndrewCuomo, ran with the traditional playbook of treating voters like ignorant children — and failed.

    "Old people with old ideas do not stay in power forever. Old lies and old tricks do not work forever. Time moves slowly — excruciatingly slowly, if you are always paying attention — but it does sweep away the old husks and bring new things, eventually. #Socialists want more people to have decent lives. Zohran Mamdani is proof that that message cannot be mischaracterized forever and ever. We will look back on this primary win as the start of something new. If America is going to have one lone opposition party to #fascism, that party does not have to suck. The establishment is too deeply rooted to move. So we will run them over."

  11. Reform councillors aged 19 and 22 in charge of children’s and adult services at local authority

    Social workers raise questions over clash of values and lack of experience of new lead members at Leicestershire County Council

    Concerns are mounting over the appointment of two Reform councillors as political leads for children’s and adults services in Leicestershire.

    Joseph Boam, 22, now heads up adult social care at Leicestershire County Council (LCC), and Charles Pugsley, 19, who is still at university, has been made cabinet member for children and family services.

    The pair were appointed following the local elections in May, and are responsible for multi-million pound budgets.

    "He’s tried just about everything to kill off the infestation, which began a month after the building at 833 Bryant St., a supportive housing facility for formerly homeless people, opened two years ago. Traps, spray, sprinkled baking soda — nothing has worked.

    'That’s just from one week,' Danny said, as he showed the drawer to a reporter last month. The Standard is not publishing his real name due to fears he’ll be evicted for speaking with the media about conditions at the facility. The cabinet beneath the kitchen sink in his studio apartment was also peppered with dead cockroaches. Outside his room, roaches could be seen crawling out of other rooms and along the hallway.

    'This is a brand-new building!' Danny shouted. 'It shouldn’t be like this.'

    The 146-unit building, managed by Mercy Housing, is rife with pests, filth, allegations of violence, and shoddy maintenance, according to residents, social workers, and city records. In addition to the roach infestation, The Standard observed a broken elevator and torn-up walls and floors during a January visit.

    (. . .)

    Construction of 833 Bryant St., also known as the Tahanan, was financed by Mayor Daniel Lurie’s nonprofit Tipping Point Community and touted by him as a shining example of how to build affordable housing at a fraction of the time and cost of other supportive housing projects in the city. (Lurie, who founded the nonprofit in 2005, stepped down as its CEO in 2019.) But residents and social workers say poor building maintenance, high staffing turnover, and inaction by management make life at 833 Bryant a filthy, dangerous nightmare."

    #SocialWorkers: "If you want to “do” something in the face of all this uncertainty and rapid change, pick what inspires you and fits you," writes Scott Banford, LCSW the northern branch chair in the NASW Kentucky chapter. "It can be a big project with a large scope or something as small as donating $5 to the non-profit of your choice. It will help your anxiety—and do some much needed good." buff.ly/40VWrQ6
