On this episode of In the Know, I spoke to Nicole Lynn Lewis, Founder and CEO of Generation Hope, a non-profit based in the DC area that works to ensure all student parents have the opportunities to succeed and experience economic mobility. Generation Hope engages education and policy partners to drive systemic change and provides direct support to teen parents in college as well as their children through holistic, two-generation programming. Nicole has a very inspiring story and valuable perspective. I think you’ll enjoy this episode.
