Did you know veterinary social work is a growing area of social work practice?
Join the NASW-CA Social Work Occupational Council for a special virtual conversation with Taylor St. Onge, MSW, APSW, one of only five certified veterinary social workers in California.
Taylor, Veterinary Social Work Manager at Metropolitan Animal Specialty Hospital, will take us inside this unique and emerging specialty and share how social workers support veterinary professionals, pet owners, and families navigating:
Grief and pet loss
Trauma and crisis
Compassion fatigue
End-of-life decision-making
The emotional complexities of the human-animal bond
We’ll also explore Taylor’s journey into veterinary social work, what the work looks like in practice, and how social workers interested in nontraditional career paths can learn more about this growing field.
If you’ve ever wondered, “What else can I do with my social work degree?”—this conversation is for you.
