Thank you for making this video. The visual images demonstrate HOPE which is what Social Workers try to show their clients. The words are an accurate description of Social Work's mission.

[Clara Cruz Santos]

Fighting, defending equality not only by words but also by acts and procedures that can change social policies

Thank you Christian for putting it 'right'...I was also confused about this 'DVD', and in fact, I wish my job as a social worker can be as exciting and positive as this makes it out to be...

Dear uploader...migalha6...please let me know if you have any vacancies where ever you are, as I would certainly be very interested changing my view and definition of the term 'social work' and I am more than willing to walk a mile in your shoes, if you come and walk a mile in mine.

All this video shows are a bunch of happy people doing random things for pete's sake. nothing to do with social work or anything else for that matter!

[Christian Liebenberg]

WTF?!

This video makes no sense. What does a dancing paediatric cancer patient or a bunch of retards singing into a fan or in fact any of the imagery in the film have to do with social work? The film would be more accurate and make a lot more sense if it showed actual social workers doing actual work... helping children who've been raped, women who've suffered abuse and Heroin addicts lying in pools of their own excrement. It's a hard, messed up world, and social work is no song and dance!
