In the wake of the tragic killings in Barre and Berlin, apparently stemming from a custody dispute, attention has focused in on the unique issues - and dangers - inherent in the field of social work, and particularly the charged issues around work in public child welfare.
We're looking at how social workers navigate these issues and how they're trained to deescalate potentially deadly or dangerous situations.
We're joined by Gary Widrick, former chair of the social work department at The University of Vermont and former director of the Title IV grant that gives students training for work in child welfare.
Also on the program, Keurig Green Mountain has had a rough few months. We look at the coffee company's standing in the national beverage industry with Seth Golden, industry analyst with Capital Ladders.
