National Virtual Town Hall: Debt. Cancelled.

#50kandBeyond

Americans now hold over $1.7 trillion in outstanding student loan debt, with women accounting for two-thirds of all outstanding student loans. Black women take on the most substantial debt burden with an average of more than $41,400. We are bringing together Black borrowers, organizers, experts, and elected officials to make clear why the student debt crisis must end.

Learn more about the student debt relief application and what you need in order to take advantage of this opportunity.
