[FONT=&]Mayor Frank Jackson also spoke directly to Stephens.
A madman who has just "lost it" isn't concerned about calling off from work in advance!!
There is something juvenile about him imo
He mentioned wanting to kill fraternity members - wonder if he had social issues in that setting?
Kinda think he was religious and went to church - in presser mentioned he knew several[/FONT][FONT=&]clergy folks
His work setting :
[/FONT]
- Foster care and adoption
- Family preservation
- Outpatient counseling
- School-based mental health services
- Community-based services for at-risk youth
- Parent support and education
- Prevention and early intervention services
- Early childhood services
- ACT Team for transitional youth
- Mentoring
They do have a residential program. Like most agencies, they branched out into back then what we called in-home counseling. I did it about three weeks and resigned. I found that therapy being delivered just like a large pizza pie removed the caretakers' authentic desire to make change. No investment.Mom would come racing in from work, I am there. We have an hour. Mom is just getting home from the office. She was herself trying to decomp from her day. It was non-focused sessions. If a caretaker was authentically interested and invested in their issues they make it a priority. The real "want" or belief of the in home concept was to hopefully intervene before their behaviors became more serious. But the truth is these were already very troubled youth, had been in contact with mental health / LE already - how else would the family system have been connected into the system - by having issues. It was exhausting work, traffic, driving into dangerous areas, the documentation loads were intense. If mom did not make it home in time you made nothing, used your gas, and were sitting in dangerous high crime settings.
Therapist turn over (above mentioned) was unreal. SO even if the premise had any viable clinical potential, starting over with a new therapist, (for both the parent and child ) every four weeks goes pretty well nowhere in and of itself. To get these services the family system would already be hooked in to social services. In that setting, the turn over is unreal also. SO basically these poor family systems were endlessly forced to start over and over with their case managers, their therapists, on and on.
He was a case manger . Case management positions are low paying and primarily deal with the paperwork.
His position- high burn out - endless staff turnover on his end also makes his position harder and harder cause the remaining ones would have to cover for the cases that the other case manager just quit.
Throw in us having to resign all the time made it harder fdor the case manager'ss as well.It is an endless cycle of disarray.When the system is supposed to be helping family systems in disarray.
When the system is in total disarray itself it is really a no win proposition that does not help much.
It may have gotten more together (doubtful) my experience with it was when it was just rolling out .
also dealing with relentless funding changes etc etc

[FONT=&]In one of his videos, Stephens blamed his workplace for driving him to kill people.
[/FONT][FONT=&]A bit of a stretch.. [/FONT]Case management = [FONT=&] is a burn out, going nowhere position.
