"Social work: Times of intense financial stress unfortunately may lead to more drinking, gambling, drug use, and violence in the home. For instance, the National Domestic Violence Hotline in Austin, Texas, reported a steady rise in call volume in 2008, up as much as 15 percent in some months. Accordingly, five of the 20 fastest-growing occupations in the BLS outlook are these: substance abuse and behavioral disorder counselors, social and human services assistants, gaming surveillance officers and gaming investigators, mental health counselors, and mental health and substance abuse social workers. The assistants and gaming-control jobs have the lowest educational requirements. "
