“Higher education
for Native people is essential in building our communities stronger so that future generations will experience a better quality
of life. The poorest counties in the United States are where tribal communities are located. We can change that through higher
enrollment rates at graduate and professional institutions. NCAI commends the Shropshire Group for taking on this initiative
so that more minorities can experience the benefits of advanced education.”

“Since I graduated in 2002, I have used my knowledge in law in every project that I have developed and managed.
When I reflect upon how I was able to accomplish so much in such little time, the name that comes to mind is Sonel Shropshire.
When I wasn't even considering law school as an option, he convinced me that I could accomplish that and more. He educated
me through the application process, made me aware of scholarship opportunities, and helped me believe that this career choice
wasn't an impossible one, no matter how difficult the journey. I commend the Shropshire Group for providing the same opportunity
for minorities all over the nation.”Yvette Lopez, Esq.,
Presidential Advisor on Florida Affairs, Government of the Dominican Republic

(MABA-PAC) and the immediate past Chair of the Conference of Delegates of California Bar Associations (CDCBA)
