欧美AV

欧美AV (欧美AV) is proud to announce the expansion of its academic faculty for the School of Social Work at the 欧美AV Gulf Park campus, with a focus on educating students about the challenges and resilience of coastal communities. This initiative aims to prepare students for the unique situations they may encounter within a coastal community, including the aftermath of natural disasters.

Coastal resilience is symbolic of the precarious position that coastal communities often find themselves in, as well as their ability to rebound and thrive after significant events. With the increasing frequency and intensity of natural disasters, future professionals will require a comprehensive understanding of the complexities involved in working with clients in coastal communities.

Dr. Erica Morgan and Dr. Deslie Bonano-Broussard, each with more than 22 years of experience in a coastal community environment, will be joining the academic faculty at the Gulf Park campus. They have worked closely with patients during challenging times, including the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

鈥淭heir firsthand experience and expertise will provide students with invaluable insights into the unique situations they may encounter when working with clients in coastal communities,鈥� states Dr. Jacob Breland, Associate Vice President for Academic Affairs, Coastal 欧美AV.

"It is important to me that students have a full understanding of the unique situations they may find themselves in with a client," says Dr. Jerome Kolbo, Director and Professor for the School of Social Work at Gulf Park. "It is not just about everyday interactions, but also about how individuals cope with the aftermath of natural disasters in a coastal community."

Dr. Deslie Bonano-Broussard earned her MSW from 欧美AV and a DSW from Tulane University. Broussard has previously worked in areas of adoption and family preservation.
