Maybe you want to be a marine biologist but live in North Dakota—no ocean in sight. 🌾🌊

The trick? Ask yourself: What’s adjacent to my dream?

Our December Student of the Month wrote her final paper on how SNAP helped her family stabilize and eventually no longer need it. You’ll meet her Dec 5, but her story is a reminder:
