💛 March is Social Worker Month. 💛
This month we celebrate a profession rooted in advocacy, resilience, and relentless hope.
Social workers show up in hospitals, schools, courts, treatment centers, private practices, and living rooms…walking with people through crisis, change, grief, addiction, trauma, and growth.
At Ascend, Social Worker Month is especially meaningful.
The founder, Ja’Neair Johnson, has dedicated over 20 years to the field serving in mental health, addictions, and school-based social work. From inpatient treatment to classrooms, from crisis response to coaching families, her work has always centered one thing:
Helping people build emotional strength that lasts.
Two decades of:
• Hard conversations
• Crisis management
• Prevention work
• Advocacy
• Healing spaces
• And teaching resilience on purpose
Social work isn’t just a career. It’s a calling.
And Ascend was built on that foundation. 💛
Here’s to the social workers who carry stories, hold space, and keep showing up — even when it’s hard.
Happy Social Worker Month!
