Child welfare, the corrections department, and probation. Then
came the readings and it didn’t click, I did not get that ah-ha moment,
I am embarrassed to admit. I looked it up. I found an article that
described human services that gave me the ah-ha moment. The
article stated as I quote “Human services, collectively, are an
interdisciplinary set of social assistance programs that include
everything from healthcare and counseling services to food and
shelter offered through government and nonprofit agencies and
designed to contribute to the welfare and happiness of communities
by delivering a broad range of help and support to individuals and
families.” (Human Services edu., 2021) This gave me the
understanding that I needed, I hope anyway.
I am employed in the field of ABA for anyone that doesn’t know it is
Applied behavior analysis. I plan on staying in this field I needed my
degree to advance in this field.
