Many children and families face challenges in their personal, school, home, and work lives. For example, single parents struggle to raise children while working; teens may become parents before they are ready; some children are exposed to violence. Child, family, and school social workers help children and families get back on track so they can lead healthy, happy lives. Child, family, and school social workers help children and families cope with social and psychological problems that may arise at school, at home, at work, or in the larger community.
