Zero Debt Massachusetts is a grassroots movement led by students and communities, amplifying the voices of communities most impacted by the burden of student debt! We're building a community of inter-generational activists to organize for a future free from student debt, and tackle this burden on our communities and economy.
Law makers, student loan servicers, and leaders of colleges and universities have all been complicit in the broken higher education finance system. They know the status of the national crisis we face and choose everyday to exacerbate the issue. Our personal stories are the most powerful tools we have to change the hearts and minds of these decisions makers.
Please make sure when you submit your story to select whether or not you are comfortable with Zero Debt Massachusetts sharing your story as one of many student debt stories that move law makers and other decision makers while attracting more like-minded activists to our cause.
Here are some questions to get you started:
Why did you decide to take out student loans originally?
Did you take out student loans for yourself or a loved one?
How would you describe your understanding of student loans when you took them out?
How would you describe your reaction to your monthly payment totals upon graduation?
How did this affect any future plans?
