As part of our StoryCorps series on criminal justice, we bring you a conversation between social workers.
Noelle Deltufo and Ginger Parsons are close friends who worked together as social workers for the OPD - Orleans Public Defenders. They discuss the emotional labor that comes with social work and more broadly about systemic injustice.

This piece was produced by Eve Abrams, in partnership with The Justice Project, a StoryCorps initiative to preserve and amplify the stories of people affected by incarceration across the U.S. Learn more at StoryCorps.org.
