Borrowers – MDC

The North Carolina Student Debt Relief Coalition provides these resources to help people to better understand and manage student debt and, in some cases, achieve debt forgiveness.

How can we help you?

Gathering your stories is like putting together a puzzle to showcase the people and situations behind the numbers. Making these policies and programs personal allows us to build better programs and policies, and advocate for protections borrowers need. It’s not only about policy and legislation; it’s about real people who continue to be affected. Share your experiences to help leaders and decision-makers see how student debt impacts us all.

Use your phone to record a video of yourself using one of the following prompts:

Me minus student debt equals ______.”
“It’s time to cancel student debt. I attend/attended [name of college or university] and carry $______ in student loan debt. This prevents me from ______”
“If I didn’t have student loan debt, I could ______.”
