What is #HeadsUpAmerica?

September 12, 2015

We are a part of a grassroots movement, launched on September 9, to make two years of community college free for those willing to work for it.

We’ll work together to create a culture that celebrates community college and gives students, teachers, counselors, business owners, families and friends a role in spreading the word about the importance and impact that universal access to community college will have on the future of America.

Our goals:

  1. Get as many responsible students as possible access to a free, high-quality community college education.
  2. Get as many people as possible to join the movement at HeadsUpAmerica.us
  3. Encourage a college-going culture, especially with first-generation students.
  4. Celebrate all community colleges by highlighting the positive value and impact they have in their local communities.

Take action by joining the movement at HeadsUpAmerica.us. Spread the word through social media and by organizing events on your campus and in your community! Think creatively about ways you can make a lasting impact. Every time you spread the word, use our official hashtag #HeadsUpAmerica and link to the site, headsupamerica.us.
