As Louisiana’s legislative session begins, advocates are calling on lawmakers to follow through on their commitment to educational opportunity by fully funding the LA GATOR Scholarship Program.
Demand for the program far exceeded expectations in its first year, leaving tens of thousands of families without access due to limited funding. Supporters say this session presents a critical opportunity to expand access and ensure more students can benefit from options that meet their needs.
A broad coalition—including national and Louisiana-based organizations—has joined together to urge action and highlight the importance of delivering on commitments made to families.
