How To Use Brain Science To Cultivate Healthy Antiracist Solutions : Today 12:00-1:30!

At the core of what we all do lies in human relationships. How can we effectively build relationships across differences? Understanding and applying key neuroscience principles when working with men of color is vital for a successful relationship - one that restores well-being. This workshop expands how we think about trauma and offers a culturally appropriate approach that supports collective well-being. In this session participants will experience a transformative learning experience to support themselves and those they serve.

Alumni Spotlight: Susan Pfister '86

After earning her Bachelor of Science in Social Work, Pfister went on to a 36-year career with the Westport Center for Senior Activities. Susan Pfister grew up in Norwalk with a twin brother, who also went to Sacred Heart. Both started as business majors, but, while he stuck to his original course, she made the switch to social work. After graduation, Pfister went on to Fordham University, where she received her master’s degree in social work with a minor in gerontology – something that would serve her well in her future career.

Student Spotlight: Shikeda Paucar

What Does Social Work Mean to You?

“To me, social work means being there for someone and providing the tools and being empathetic and considerate to others, no matter the race or religion. Being a social worker is also something that has been in my heart because my mentor was a social worker, and I don’t think I'd be here today if she never entered my life.”
