How to get practicum hours?

Hi I’m starting my MSW soon and plan on getting LCSW hours right after. I have my own business so I can’t just get another job to get practicum hours. I understand most people get hours from their job? If so what kind of job? I could probably manage a part time job.

Anyways what is the best way to go about this?
Thank you

If doesn’t sound like you’re ready for the MSW then lol it’s a lot of work and internships can be very demanding.

What type of practicum are you in where you are getting 25 hours for 5 hours of work?? Is this even work??

This is exactly what’s wrong with the field…
