Ross Said:

What are the career options availale with a Masters degree in Public Health and Social Welfare?

We Answered:

Off the top of my head, I can think of a couple of areas. One would be to work with your state's Food Bank network; besides distributing food to shelters and pantries, some Food Banks do work with other agencies to educate those living in poverty about health and proper nutrition. Food bank staff often conduct workshops, teach cooking classes, and sit on Hunger & Poverty task forces.

A refugee center might be another area; in our community, the Episcopal Church runs a refugee center along with educational programs (including health and wellness issues). Additionally, The Salvation Army, Catholic and Episcopal churches run shelters, homes for unwed mothers, and transitional housing shelters; skilled administrators are often needed at these types of facilities.

You could choose to become a paid lobbyist; and advocate for social change at a legislative level. I've recently become involved in advocacy and was rather surprised to learn about the whole lobbying process.

You can always choose a day job in community health, and then volunteer your time and experience at charitable organizations that assist the poor. With the sort of educational background you would have, you'd be an incredible asset.
