Free Student Loan 
Payments Webinar 
Oct. 6

Gesher Human Services is 
offering a free webinar to 
Michiganders struggling 
with student loan 
repayments now that 
the three-year payment 
moratorium has ended. 
 The nonprofit 
organization, which offers 
financial education to 
Metro Detroiters, has been 
receiving calls from worried 
families unsure of how 
they will cope with finding 
hundreds of dollars more 
each month out of their 
already-stretched incomes. 
 A report by Education 
Data in 2022 showed that 
Michigan residents had a 
student loan debt of $51 
million, with 52 percent of 
them under the age of 35. 
The average student loan 
debt was $36,116, with 14 
percent of Michiganders 
being burdened by student 
loans. 
 The free webinar will 
be available via Zoom 
on Friday, Oct. 6, from 
1- 2 p.m. with registration 
available at bit.ly/
gesherstudentloans. 
The student loan webinar 
will help participants 
to confirm how many 
loans they have, explore 
refinance and budget 
options, and review recent 
loan forgiveness options, 
including those that are 
income driven.
For those who are 
struggling with student 
loans or other debt, and who 
need more individualized 
financial counseling, Gesher 
Human Services offers one-
on-one free counseling.
