Last week, Doria Ragland made a significant visit to St. Ann's Family Services, a Social Services Agency offering Supportive Housing, early childhood education, and Mental Health Services to Foster Youth and families.
This outing, confirmed via an Instagram post by St. Ann's Today, aimed to actively engage with the services provided. Gina Zapanta, a friend of St. Ann's Family Services, facilitated Doria Ragland's tour, enabling her to gain deeper insights into the programs catering to children, youth, and families. The Instagram post expressed gratitude to Doria for her contributions to the community, recognizing her as a social worker.
This visit marked Doria's first public appearance since 2023. However, some fans expressed skepticism about her role, questioning whether she truly functions as a social worker. Megan's mother, often described as a licensed therapist or clinical social worker, clarified in an interview with Glamour that while Doria primarily works as a yoga instructor, she also engages in social work, particularly with geriatric individuals. Despite obtaining an Associate Clinical Social Worker (ASW) license in July 2015, four years after completing her Master of Social Work (MSW) degree, Doria's ability to practice independently remains restricted.
To qualify as an independent social worker, one must accumulate extensive supervised social work experience, pass rigorous exams, and fulfill continuing education requirements, none of which Doria has completed without supervision. This raises suspicions regarding her involvement in a business providing geriatric care, as she lacks the necessary independent license. Discrepancies also arise regarding her graduation year, with conflicting records indicating a graduation in 2011 despite her name appearing in the 2012 commencement program.
Additionally, allegations have surfaced concerning Doria's involvement in drug dealing, as revealed in Tom Bower's book. While legal constraints prevent further elaboration, rumors suggest her decade-long absence from Megan's life may be linked to a prison sentence due to tax evasion related to a travel agency she owned. These speculations shed light on the complexities surrounding Doria Ragland's personal and professional life, prompting further scrutiny into her background and activities.
