I have honestly never heard that there is,. I would call the dept of Education and ask them…They would know
It is really sad that mental health therapists/ and human service workers work with those that are considered to be the “ills” in society and are not app[reciated for the work that they do. I believe that if you join the military, the peace corps or VISTA, there is a way to have some of your loans forgiven.
If you havent’s done so already, consolidate your loans. Also work with the people that gave you the loan and work out a smaller payment.
Good Luck
