In this Good Day Kansas segment, we meet Greta, a Master of Social Work practicum student who recently completed her generalist year at Saint Francis Ministries. Filmed at the Salina location, Greta shares how the practicum gave her hands-on experience with everything from court visits and family meetings to case management and administrative work.

Greta says the experience helped build her confidence and laid a strong foundation for her career in social work. She praised the Saint Francis team for their mentorship, noting how her supervisor and preceptor guided her through both the day-to-day responsibilities and the broader theories of the profession. With exposure to the full scope of child welfare, Greta’s practicum has prepared her to make a lasting impact in the lives of families and children.
