Meet The Fried Social Worker

This site is presently run by one person, L. Jenkins, LISW, ACSW. That's me :-) I have degrees in Liberal Arts, Psychology, and Social Work from The Ohio State University. I'm currently an Emergency Room social worker who's feeling burned out and in need of a different way to earn a living. I heartily embrace social work values, but I find it increasingly difficult to implement them in the environs of a large cost-conscious health care organization.

Why did you create this site?

The web is littered with scams and useless business opportunity sites. I wanted to develop a site that will be useful to other social workers who would like to gain control over their careers and their lives by exploring alternatives, including perhaps the start of their own business. I'm rolling up my sleeves and gathering some quality information for social workers with an entrepreneurial spirit. I have discovered that an online business can indeed be started quite affordably, with minimal financial risk, and most importantly, with integrity and the values that I embrace as a social worker. I am a Christian and I believe in conducting myself accordingly in my online business activities.

Do you make any money from this site?

I am an affiliate for Amazon.com. I receive a small commission for any book sales generated from this site. I also offer social work merchandise at CafePress. These sales allow me to keep this site free for the visitor. I also include some paid advertising on this site after the advertiser has been carefully prescreened and I have judged the product or service to be legitimate and of potential value to visitors at this site. If you ever have a problem with an advertiser, product, or service recommended on this site, please let me know!
