About this listen
In this episode of Rural Social Worker, Andrea Charles talks to Dr. Nancy Rockowitz, a social worker with over 30 years of experience, about her time working in Guilford, Maine, one of the poorest towns in the state. Nancy shares her insights into the challenges of working in rural schools, including building trust with families, navigating a mistrust of social workers, and dealing with the stigma of poverty. She discusses the cultural dynamics of rural communities and how she used empathy and creative strategies to connect with students and parents in a town where resources were scarce.
