Jessica Wright – Direct Support Professional
“To be able to have this opportunity is a privilege. This is the first scholarship I have ever been awarded, and this really shows me the potential that I have. Recognizing one’s own potential can be difficult and obtrusive to progress. I know now that I am capable, which is huge. Receiving this scholarship really helps me with tuition, and it means so much that I can avoid student loans for awhile longer.”
