Who We Are

Image
Formerly the Active Advocacy Coalition, The League was created in 2015 as a partnership between The Scholarship Foundation of St. Louis and St. Louis Graduates. Now a program of The Scholarship Foundation of St. Louis, the League is a member-based, statewide coalition of students advocating for student-centered policy. The League is entering its sixth year and has engaged students across the state of Missouri. The Scholarship Foundation’s Policy Fellows serve as the brain trust of The League.

Why & What We Do

Image
The League works for and with Black, Brown, undocumented, and low-income students to advance policies and practices that increase college access and affordability, as well as to mobilize against inequitable policies. Since 2014, Policy Fellows at The Scholarship Foundation of St. Louis has researched and advocated at the state level for increased need-based aid, divestment from merit-based aid, and scholarship/tuition equity for undocumented students. In 2018, The League (then the Active Advocacy Coalition) began its federal policy agenda and during the 2020 annual meeting, laid the groundwork for a campus policy agenda.
