Background

About Zaria Corbin

As a Child Welfare Specialist through the Illinois Department of Family and Children Services, I provide comprehensive case management services to youth and families in foster care and residential programs. I collaborate with a multidisciplinary team of social workers, therapists, and educators to ensure the safety, well-being, and permanency of the clients. I hold a Child Welfare Worker certification issued by the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services, and I have over two years of experience in the social services field. Previously, I worked as a Social Services Specialist at Transitional Center, where I assisted youth with mental health and substance abuse issues to transition to community living. I also completed an Investigator Internship at Nashville Defenders, where I gained valuable skills in criminal defense investigation and advocacy. I have a Bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice from Tennessee State University, where I learned about the legal system, criminology, and ethics. I am passionate about helping vulnerable and marginalized populations, and I have strong analytical, teamwork, and organizational skills.
