Dr. Kris Williams-Falcon practices family therapy, social work, and counseling in Raeford, NC.

"A North Carolina woman is accused of posing as a doctor, providing services to patients and defrauding an insurance company out of millions of dollars. Kris Williams-Falcon faces federal charges in the case. In April, federal agents seized two Charlotte homes, saying Williams-Falcon bought them using money from her insurance fraud scheme. One is in a neighborhood on Coves Edge Lane, which she bought in May 2022, and the second is in a neighborhood on Wild Nursery Court, which she bought in October 2022. The FBI said Williams-Falcon was a certified alcohol and drug counselor until April 2021, which was when the state board revoked her license. After that point, the FBI said she submitted fake insurance claims for services she either wasn’t authorized to do or didn’t do at all. Investigators said the insurance company paid her more than $4.5 million."

What is Social Work?

Strongly influenced by the concepts of human rights and social justice, social workers are professionals that help vulnerable individuals, families, and groups in need. Social work can include a variety of different jobs or careers, but in essence it involves meeting people in their home environment, identifying the issues that are causing social problems for them, and connecting them with the right resources to improve their well-being.

Social workers may work for organizations, in hospitals, in schools, for the government, at senior centers, in private practice, or in any number of public or private institutions. Many social workers choose to work with specific populations, such as children, the elderly, or the poor. Often, social work is about creating healthy communities in order to improve the lives of all people.

Some of the issues that social workers may come up against in their profession include:

Violence
Poverty
Abuse
Discrimination
Illness and lack of access to healthcare
Drug and alcohol addiction
Divorce
Death and grief
Unemployment
Disability
Mental illness
Family dysfunction

Social workers are advocates for social change. They educate clients to prevent problems from occurring or worsening. They empower others to develop to their full potential.
