Joining her will be Tracy Whitaker from the National Association of Social Workers and Sylvia Abrego-Araiza, a youth counselor who is the subject of this month’s Your Life Calling segment on the Today Show.  Jane, her guests, and the online audience will be discussing social work as a career and a means for giving back after the age of 50.  We look forward to hearing your comments and thoughts about the subject in Tuesday’s chat.
