In this episode, we sit down with Chankia Berry, a Veterinary Social Worker at Tuskegee University, to explore the growing field of veterinary social work. If you’ve ever wondered how social workers support veterinary professionals, grieving pet owners, and students facing compassion fatigue, this conversation opens the door. Tune in to learn how social work skills apply beyond traditional settings — and discover a career path you may not have considered.


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!
