Hi everyone! I am located in Ohio and have my Bachelors in SW and Licensure (LSW). I am really not interested in going back for my MSW and I make decent money in my current role ~60k. It is a care coordinator role which I have enjoyed for the past 2 years but I am looking for something else or branch away from social work completely for a couple of years. Anyone have any recommendations or has anyone successfully transitioned to a different field from SW?
