Testimonials
Don't just take our word for it...
The Ambassador Training gave me the knowledge and the courage to share my GED journey on Capitol Hill.
Lynne H.
My GED journey along with Student Ambassador Training was a game changer that has catapulted me into Lead Community Organizer in Tucson, Arizona. I have taken our community members' concerns to the State Capitol several times and even advocated for a People's First Economy all the way to Washington D.C.
