Even if you find a great program that you want to attend sometimes you run into long waiting lists, high tuition costs, etc. But there are tons of programs in and around the Ventura area. I found a long list here: http://nurseslink.org/lpn-programs/california/Let us know which one you choose and how you like it. Best!
