It could be the BEST THING you ever did for YOURSELF

Former Colorado U.S. Senator, Ben Nighthorse Campbel, a member of the Cheyenne Tribe, is an inspirational example of what can be achieved by striving to get that GED. He has become a spokesman for GED and has this message: "I often tell young people that they can't let one mistake keep holding them back. I am living proof that getting a GED can be a step toward realizing your dreams and contributing to your family and community."
