Queen P & Queen H Season 4 Episode 8

Send us a text

Hey Kings and Queens!  As we wind down the season and prepare for the holidays, we’re bringing you another compelling episode.  In Part II of our Memorable Cases series, we share experiences from cases involving substance abuse.

While we sprinkle in lighthearted moments, we want to stress the serious impact substance use disorders can have—not just on the individual but also on their loved ones.  These stories shed light on the challenges and emotional toll that social workers face when addressing substance abuse, offering insight for professionals, students and anyone interested in this field.

If you or someone you know is struggling with substance use, please call the National Helpline offered by SAMHSA at 1-800-662-4357 for confidential, free support and resources.

Thank you for listening and supporting our work!  Don’t forget to check out our latest journals & guides and stay tuned for more exciting projects.

Social workers of color face immense challenges—systemic racism, underfunding, and overwhelming caseloads. They work tirelessly to support others but often lack the support they need. That’s why we created the Queens of Social Work Podcast—a lifeline and safe space for social workers of color to vent, share, laugh, and find the resources they need to thrive.



The  QOSW Daily Journal and our Royally You Interactive Journal for yourself will help you get all of your thoughts out and reflect on what’s next for you. For all of the budding social workers and those wanting to know more about social work in a healthcare setting, check out our Guide for ER Social Workers also for sale on Amazon and go to our website queensofsocialwork.net for your queens of social work merch! It makes a great gift.
