Meet today's Viking Tales Alumni Spotlight, Emily Rubin '19G:

"I pursued my MSW degree at Salem State University for several reasons.
As an older student, I had a busy schedule: I was on the faculty at UMass Chan Medical School, alongside raising teenagers.
I appreciated the flexibility that was offered at SSU, and I was able to enroll in courses that accommodated my personal and professional schedules.
Another big perk was that SSU was so much more affordable than other MSW programs in the area.
It was a long four years but after I passed my licensure exams, I was able to accomplish two important goals: my first goal was opening a part-time private practice with a special focus on supporting families of individuals with disabilities.
My second goal was publishing a book about an intervention I developed to support families of youth with behavioral health needs.
It was during an independent study with Professor Michael Melendez at SSU that I wrote an early draft of my book - Supporting Siblings and Parents of Children with Behavioral Challenges. It was recently published by NASW!"
