Education as a Right, Not a Privilege

Regina Lewis-Ward has made higher education access one of the defining pillars of her legislative career. She believes that a college degree or vocational credential should never be out of reach because of a student's zip code or family income.

Through scholarship programs, legislative advocacy, and community partnerships, Regina is working to ensure that Georgia's students have every opportunity to pursue their dreams beyond high school.
