A day in the life of a Trumbull County social worker
WARREN, Ohio (WKBN) — National Social Work Month may be over, but the vital work these people do continues all year long.
Take Trumbull County Children Services case worker Bryan Bartlett, for example. Bartlett is one of the agency's intake workers. They're considered the front doors to the agency and are the case workers who initially look into reports of abuse and neglect.
Bartlett says the most rewarding part of his job is keeping children safe and in their homes.
'We want to keep your children in your home and with you and raise a happy family. We're not here to take your children,' Bartlett said. 'We're here to help you and make your situations stronger and your families stronger.'
Bartlett has been working at Trumbull County Children Services for 28 years. He says what he loves most about his job is helping children and families.

Dads can get paid time for Father's Day
With Father's Day just around the corner, DECKED is launching something special: the Dad Time Off (DTO) campaign. It's a chance for working dads across the U.S. to take a day off, on the house, and create some much-needed memories with their kids. Here's how it works: anyone can nominate a dad (or dads) who deserves a break from the grind. DECKED will select 100 lucky dads and reimburse a day's worth of lost wages, giving them a guilt-free opportunity to spend time with family. This campaign comes with eye-opening data from a survey of over 1,000 dads. The results? Many fathers are struggling to balance work and family life. A few key findings: 65% of dads have missed important moments with their kids due to work commitments. 43% feel financial stress when taking time off. 60% agree that more PTO or flexible hours would make it easier for their kids to be present. DECKED is stepping up to help dads reclaim their time this Father's Day. Nominate a dad today! Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
