3: The Rip-Off

3: The Rip-Off

What if someone promised you a grant for your education if you spent a set amount of time in underprivileged schools across the country? What if you served your "time" and when you went to redeem your grant you found out (through no fault of yours) that you didn't qualify? What if this "game" happened to thousands of educators with no end in sight?
In this episode, Jake discusses the "rip-off" of the TEACH Grants and the nightmare of playing the game. He uses the personal story of several teachers as they've tried to navigate to get what's owed to them.
