Betty is in her final year of the Bachelor of Arts in Social Work program at the University of Pittsburgh.

During her time at CLP, Betty has been helping patrons with tasks such as applying for jobs, finding housing services and shelters, and locating education resources. Her work aims to bridge resource gaps and offer support to individuals in need.

Betty shared that a significant motivator for choosing this internship is her desire to explore different populations she could work with in her future career as a social worker.

Through this experience, Betty hopes to identify her passions within social work by engaging with a wide variety of individuals and their needs.

Her dedication exemplifies the growing role of social workers in libraries, ensuring that public spaces like the CLP also serve as access points for critical social support.
