Subject: [GuidedPathways] Free chatbot for FAFSA completion!

All,
Exciting news in the world of technology supporting our students….
In partnership with JFF and the College Board, The Benefits Data Trust has developed a chatbot to support students’ in completing their FAFSA.  While there are 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: www.getfafsahelp.org/CB2020<http://www.getfafsahelp.org/CB2020>.
Best,
Kwb
