Texas Postsecondary Advocates Coalition for Equity

Texas must pick up the PACE for equity in college access, affordability, completion and supports

 

We envision a postsecondary education system in Texas that:

  • Guarantees access to every student who wants to attend

  • Ensures affordability for students without the lasting burden of significant student debt

  • Creates opportunities for undocumented/DACAmented students

  • Equitably serves all students, especially students of color, first generation college students and students from historically underrepresented backgrounds

We work to achieve this vision by:

  • Amplifying student and young-adult voices

  • Developing solutions with organizations, researchers, policymakers, and education leaders 

  • Identifying and working with power dynamics in higher education to drive systemic change and remove barriers for Texas’ most marginalized students

  • Creating and sharing qualitative and quantitative research to inform policy decisions
