“I earned my bachelor’s in Anthropology/Sociology from EOU, and I’m now working for Umatilla County as a Mental Health Associate for a new prevention and outreach program, where we conduct small skills groups in the schools. I have also completed the first year of a master’s degree program in clinical health counseling. I credit EOU, specifically the faculty, with my success in my career and passion for my work with children. With an academic focus in sociology, I could better articulate the areas in which our society is lacking, which ignited my passion for social change.”
