 gaps in this support structure (namely it does not support the WAFSA), hopefully this can be leveraged to pivot resources to support WAFSA completion, resulting in a broader strategy that supports all of our communities.  The chatbot is now live, and students
 can go here for information on how to sign up: <a href="http://www.getfafsahelp.org/CB2020">
