Photo of Marva Carroll, MSW ’06: Marva’s strong sense of community and family fostered by her upbringing in the deep South made for a great fit with Buffalo, New York and the diversity of the UB campus. Upon receiving her MSW degree, she moved to Arizona, working to affect change and improve the welfare of Native American peoples.
Photo of Kelly Jackson, PhD ’07: In earning her PhD in Social Welfare at UB, Kelly made strong contributions to social work scholarship though her teaching and social research on race and culture.  She is now as an assistant professor in Arizona, continuing to make her impact on education among diverse populations, including American Indian and Hispanic cultures.
Photo of Robert Chapman, MSW ’03: With a full-time job in clinical practice, Robert was able to continue work while a student in the School of Social Work’s flexible part-time MSW program. In his evaluation of the program’s impact on his work as an addictions counselor, he credits the school with helping him polish the skills needed to affect change in his clients’ lives.
Photo of Marie Roth, MSW ’02: Social work was always Marie’s first desire and, impacted by an employer’s downsizing, she came to UB’s master’s program to finally realize her dream. By continuing her education at UB, she is now a clinical supervisor and therapist, working with diverse populations of children with mental health concerns to improve their welfare.
Photo of David Crowther, JD/MSW ’05: Combining his interests in law and social work, David completed the school’s JD/MSW program to be an agent of social change.  He found that the school’s dual-degree program taught him to celebrate diversity and see commonalities, and that it helped develop communication that enables a deeper understanding with his law clients.
Photo of Maria Perez-Cruz, MSW ’02: Maria uses her master’s education in social work to serve diverse clientele in an economically depressed community in one of the largest farming regions in New York State. She took advantage of the school’s part-time MSW extension program in Jamestown, New York, continuing her education while remaining to live and work in her area.
