NM Higher Education Department

Thank you, @native_forward, for inviting us to participate in the Central New Mexico Student Success Convening this August. 🎓
 
Deputy Secretary Trujillo and Indian Education Director Nathana Bird participated in a panel discussion highlighting the importance of addressing students’ basic needs, expanding access to higher education, and connecting students with the resources and support they need to thrive throughout their college journey.
 
Financial Aid Outreach Coordinator Chandler Farnsworth also shared information about New Mexico’s tuition-free college programs and the financial aid opportunities available through the state. Providing students and families with clear information about these resources is an important part of ensuring that cost does not stand in the way of pursuing a college education.
 
Events like this create valuable opportunities to learn from one another, share resources and strengthen the partnerships that help New Mexico students access higher education, persist through college, and prepare for successful careers.
