.@P4PNational is a movement across university campuses calling for social work students to be paid for fieldwork. As organizers say, “economic hardship shouldn’t be a prerequisite” for the job. Full story for @TeenVogue and EHRP by @Rainesford #LaborDay teenvogue.com/story/unpaid-w…

For #NationalInternDay, resharing a piece I reported for @TeenVogue and @econhardship on the fight to end unpaid work requirements in fields like social work and teaching, featuring @payourinterns, @UGAP4P/@P4PNational, a student teacher, and more. teenvogue.com/story/unpaid-w…

There are fields, including education, social work, and nursing, where unpaid labor is often built into the structure from the outset. It exacerbates the student debt crisis, does not protect students as workers, and shapes fields. I reported on students working to change it:

Social workers are essential workers, and we strongly believe that unpaid internships don't just contribute to the devaluation of the social work profession, but also create undue burdens and unnecessary barriers. #SocialWorkTwitter #P4P #EconomicSocialJustice #Internships

Unpaid field work harms students and the field of social work as a whole. Thanks @Rainesford for this incredible piece! @P4PNational @UGAP4P @payourinterns

“Student organizers say they value the work they do in the field and that’s why they’re fighting so hard to prevent economic hardship for those who come after them.” @Rainesford for @teenvogue #UnpaidInternships @P4PNational @UGAP4P #P4P #PaymentforPlacements @payourinterns

There are entire fields, including education, social work, counseling + nursing, where unpaid fieldwork is seen as a given. @Rainesford spoke to young students who can't afford to keep working without getting paid. tinyurl.com/4ep9a6x7 @econhardship

"According to @P4PNational, a movement across university campuses calling for social work students to be paid for fieldwork, 88% of MSW internships at @UMich were unpaid." We'll lose social workers if getting an education means they can't afford to live. teenvogue.com/story/unpaid-w…

Alejandra, 23, was working in a nursing home. She has no health insurance. She has student debt she doesn't think she'll ever be able to pay off. She's part of @P4PNational's @UGAP4P chapter—students who are advocating for payment for required fieldwork. teenvogue.com/story/unpaid-w…
