Being a male in the field of social work, I feel that we can be stigmatized greatly. Especially since it is a primarily female-dominated role. I think the mindset is changing for the good. I am currently a case manager on a high level of care dual diagnostic team or the act team, and I love my team. It may burn me out by the end of the week, but if I see a client starting to improve it brings me a lot of joy and reminds me why I choose this field is to help other people. I will be getting my master's in counseling, and getting my license as an LPC. Everyone much success on their journey!
Thank you for the opportunity to share my experience in social work! It was such an honor to be featured on your channel! You’re such a gem in the field and I’m blessed to know you. I echo everything that the other guys mentioned!
Donzell Lampkins, MSW, LCSW I loved learning more about you and your work! Thank you for sharing!!
I agree with everything stated in this video. I think it is so important to have men in this field as it really challenges the narrative that men can’t show emotions or be compassionate and caring. People need healthy male interaction and support when necessary and our society is so socialized to not receive it.
This is so cool!! My boyfriend and I are in our last semester of our MSW program!!
I love being a social worker LCSW. As a male social worker I’ve had wonderful opportunities working with male clients!
Honestly this was a really great video to watch. I am Sophomore Social Work major and I honestly have only seen 2 or 3 other males in any of my classes and i got a little self conscious, especially when in 3/5th of my classes i was the only male in the room. Its really refreshing seeing other males in the Social Work field that are successful and hearing their stories.
How did it end up going for you? I am in a similar situation
Thank you for sharing this. I am currently working towards my bachelors in Social Work and considering working as a school Social Worker.
This video was awesome! Thank you so much for this video. I am considering adding social work as a second major to my accounting degree and this video is helping me to really consider the benefits. Thank you so much!
i am entering field for my BSW this august and seeing this video reinforced to me. im in the right field. can not wait to enter the field and get my Masters in social work.
Thank you to everyone this shows how great of a community we have and showing that everyone can do it !!! Thank you also for taking the time to do it I appreciate it 🙌🏼
So grateful for this video and seeing other men in the field, especially in a variety of fields. Thank you for being this altogether!

I like the part when they say “surround your self with the right crowd”, because that can play a profound role in your life….it can sometimes determine if you’re going continue in this career path.

I'm glad I bumped on this video bcos next month will be the start of my freshmen college in social work. At first i doubted to take this course bcos in our country social work students are mostly females and this made me think that i might be left out. The advices on this vid helped me a lot to really pursue this course! Wish me luck
All the very best @Emmanuel🤗

I have never seen any commentaries on any platform in any format which effectively addresses the staggering lack of interest shown by men towards social work as a career compared to women. One of the speakers in this video suggested the possible benefits for service users of seeing themselves represented, in terms of their perception of identity, by their social worker. I would suggest men and boys are very poorly served by social work in this respect. What is underpinning such a fundamental lack of diversity in social work? Alternatively it is also legitimate to ask "does it actually matter that only 15% of social workers are men?"
