18 million adults in the United States do not possess a high school diploma, and many states prohibit students from earning their diploma after the age of 21, which typically results in less promising outcomes. To address this, Goodwill launched The Excel Center, a tuition-free, adult charter school – that offers services like childcare and life coaching to ensure success for its students. On Saturday, NBC highlighted The Excel Center during the halftime of the University of Notre Dame football game. Click below to learn more about how Goodwill, Notre Dame economist Patrick Turner, and former Arizona Governor Doug Ducey are fighting to improve educational policies, change policy, and make the case for adults to earn high school diplomas! 🔗 https://bit.ly/3MA9gIR
