Securing financial aid needed to attend college can make a difference across generations. The #CalGrantEquityFramework is more important than ever as college students prepare to enter a workforce changed by the COVID-19 pandemic. #AB1746. @CAgovernor

"For every $1 invested in the #CalGrantEquityFramework the state will benefit $26 from that investment in 5 years," says @castudentaid Executive Director @M_LGarcia. We must simplify #CalGrant and remove barriers to financial aid - now is the time to act for students @CAgovernor

Thank you @AsmCervantes and @CaWomensCaucus for supporting the Cal Grant Equity framework making college affordable for all students in CA! 60% of all Cal Grants go to women struggling most to recover from the pandemic. @castudentaid @CollegeOpp @FixFinancialAid @letsunitela
I, along with several members of the @CaWomensCaucus, support including the Cal Grant Equity Framework in our state budget. This Cal Grant reform will make state financial aid available to an additional 150,000 students, including women students & student-parents! #AD60 (1/x)

“If we don’t find it in our political will to invest in our needy students across the state so that they can enroll in and complete college, then we will miss this opportunity to help provide a path to a living wage job and recovery for a generation of students,” @JessieRyanSac

Cal Grant is the largest state financial aid system in the nation. Despite this, many Californians remain underrepresented and underserved. The Cal Grant Equity Framework will bridge the gap and address the financial hurdles students face. #FixFinancialAid #AB1746

As student, financial aid, higher education, and equity advocates, we celebrate last year’s historic investments to expand access to Cal Grant to over 150,000 more students, and we now urge state legislators to support #AB1746. We must make financial aid more accessible now!
