My name is Yessica De La Torre.
I’m a master of social work graduate at Boise State University and I currently work at the Human Services Agency in San Joaquin County.
I was initially really nervous about finding placement, but luckily the staff and faculty here, at Boise, were very supportive.
They gave me the option to find placement wherever I would like, or they also helped me find placement for Field Practicum.
I chose social work to make a difference in the community.
