How has education changed your life/your family?

As a first-generation college graduate and as an educator, I have experienced firsthand the positive impacts of education. I have seen students who have persisted against all odds, and despite facing tremendous obstacles such as living in their cars and relying on food pantries while attending school, go on to graduate and attain viable and uplifting employment. I still keep in contact with many of my former students today, and several have gone on to be active contributors in their communities, inspiring and supporting others on their own journey. Education is transformative, with far-reaching reverberations that extend beyond our person, our communities, and our society at large.
