"After becoming a community care navigator I realized that I enjoy social work and that was something I would not have known if I had not taken this new position. This class has allowed me to contribute to the training required for others who also want to become community health workers with Community Bridges. I am proud of myself for learning to be flexible and realizing that working in social work requires flexibility. "
