This is an ideal job for organized people who have strong communication skills and understand the value of advocacy for underserved individuals.
- Social work assistant: A career as a social work assistant is another option for someone with an associate degree in social work. This position would likely be a great fit for candidates with strong interpersonal skills who are patient, sympathetic and can be flexible in their job.
- Community outreach worker: Community outreach workers coordinate educational, training, youth and health services for the communities in which they work. If you are a social person who has a strong desire to directly improve the community in which you live, working as a community outreach worker could be a great fit for you.

If you have compassion and a strong desire to help those who are in crisis and likely underserved, this job could be a great fit for you.
