For Breanna Hale, Stanislaus State became more than just a place to earn a degree. It became a community where she discovered purpose, mentorship and a passion for helping others. 

Originally from Yucaipa in San Bernadino County, Hale said Stan State’s welcoming environment reminded her of home while also opening the door to new opportunities. 

“I grew up in a small town, and moving here kept a similar feeling while expanding into a larger community,” Hale said.
