The person in my career that I admire is Mary Richmond. The reason why is because she was the woman that formalice the profession. She made a lot of things in the career. For enumerating some of them, she change the tecnics, the contents, the system and the theory in the Social Work. And in the other hand, but not less important, she revolutionized the way that the people do the changes, converting this "helps" in a real profession, searching the causes for the poverty and inequality.
Her life starts the fourth of august at the year 1861 in U.S.A. Her parents died when she was very young and for this reason she needed to mude to other city with her aunts and grandmother. She grow up in a context with constants discussions and this situation made in her a character with own opinions and critical attitude. Her grandmother raised her in her house until twenty years old. In 1889 started to work in a Charity Organisation Society and is in this moment when she realiced that is necessary to convert this in a profession.
