What are the MAPL Social Work Services all about?
At Matawan Aberdeen Public Library, our Social Worker provides a welcoming, confidential, and strength-based environment to help connect patrons with the resources, advocacy, and support they need in their daily lives. Support will be offered in multiple ways, through one-on-one assistance, as well as programs designed to benefit the broader community. The Social Worker will also collaborate with community members and officials to identify needs and guide the development of relevant services.
The Social Worker will be available through weekly drop-in hours as well as scheduled appointment-based sessions. For patrons who are unable to visit the library during these times, virtual or phone appointments can also be arranged.
