A caseworker talks about their role, what keeps them going, and the barriers they see

In this episode, we go behind the scenes with a caseworker from Lakeshore CAP, a local organization working directly with individuals and families facing housing instability. This conversation shines a light on the human side of social work — the long hours, the hard conversations, and the heart it takes to keep showing up.

We talk about what brought them to this work, the systems they have to navigate, the common roadblocks their clients face, and what keeps them going on the toughest days.

This episode is about more than forms and files — it’s about people helping people.
