Student Advocacy Day
Thursday, October 23, 2025
An all-day, virtual event
This is your opportunity to help make a difference! Join forces with fellow CSD students and NSSLHA chapters to make your collective voice be heard. We're calling on Congress to support legislation to improve access to Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF). The SERVICE Act (H.R. 2829) strengthens Public Service Loan Forgiveness by reducing required payments, expanding eligibility, and ensuring fair access to loan relief for the public service workforce.
Join National NSSLHA in our goal to send over 7,000 letters to Congress this fall!
Here's What You Can Do
1. Send a Letter to Congress – Urge your representatives to protect access to affordable student loans and repayment options.
- Go to this page.
- Fill in your info.
- Click "send message" and your letter will automatically send to your member(s) of Congress!
2. Print and personalize a Take Action sign [PDF], share why this issue matters to you, and post a photo. Tag National NSSLHA and your representatives!
Together, we can do this! #NSSLHAstrong! #NSSLHAStudentAdvocacyDay
Organize a Chapter Event
Advocating is more fun when you do it as a group! So why not organize a virtual "dinner" or set aside time during a chapter meeting for members to submit Take Action letters on their laptops! It’s a great way for members to talk to each other about why it’s important for them to advocate.
Need to incentivize your members to participate? Think about offering them a gift card for a “piece of pizza for a piece of their time,” or a donut so they, “donut forget about advocacy.”
Visit our Grassroots Advocacy page for ideas and ways to get involved at the local, state, and/or federal levels in October and all year long.
