Barbara Kampa graduated with honors from the University of Minnesota with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Social Science. She is currently pursuing a Master of Social Work and a Master of Science in Community and International Development, at Andrews University, Berrien Springs, Michigan. Barbara has over 25 years of experience teaching, administrating, and developing education programs for children and adults in non-traditional settings, including community education, private school, home-school cooperatives, churches, and an alternative school for at-risk teenagers. Barbara’s concern for victims of violence stems from her personal and professional involvement in foster care and orphan advocacy. She and her family adopted a special needs child from China, and she is currently employed as a Family Caseworker at White’s Residential and Family Services, a private, not-for-profit foster care and home-based services agency. Barbara holds membership in the Phi Alpha Honors Society of Social Work and in the North American Association of Christians in Social Work (NACSW). She is co-author of a poster entitled, “Infusing Domestic Violence into HBSE Courses: A Unit Study Approach,” which was presented at the 2008 Counsel of Social Work Education (CSWE) conference. Barbara currently lives with her husband and five children in South Bend, Indiana.
