What is a policy or law that has had an impact on your life?
The Homeless Higher Education Tuition Waiver Legislature CS/CS/HB 1577(1009.25), which allows students experiencing homelessness to attend any Florida public college tuition-free, has most impacted my life. I often spent nights at friends’ houses or outside. I felt lost, but I knew I wanted more for myself. I was reminded of the Homeless Higher Education Tuition Waiver. With the cost of tuition lifted, my overall cost was immensely reduced. My dream finally seemed attainable.
