My name is Aracely Contreras.
I graduated from Texas Woman’s University in May of 2014 with a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work. I was unaware of the help I could receive to achieve my dream of graduating with a degree to help others in need. Thanks to HB1403, I was able to afford college and continue my education in pursuit of my Master’s degree in Social Work. I am forever grateful for HB1403.
