When Robeena Zaman recently earned her Master’s Degree in Social Work, it was much more than an academic accomplishment. For Zaman, it represented another chapter in her story of triumph over the many stumbling blocks thrown her way throughout her life, including being rejected by her first husband just ten weeks into their marriage after she got pregnant.
It was all she had encountered and endured that eventually drew Zaman, albeit a little late in her life, to becoming a social worker and working primarily with children. As a child she knew the importance of a stable home environment and she has worked tirelessly to ensure this for children since she has been attached to the Child Care and Protection Agency.
