Student Parent Success Network
Open to all parenting students (mothers, fathers, grandparents, aunts/uncles, big siblings, and all others who identify as parenting while in college!)
Join the Student Parent Success Network to connect with a community of support as you and your family realize your goals. Peer leaders in the Student Parent Success Network will help you connect with resources to support your family, including assistance accessing child care, financial resources, and lots more. Plus, we also offer weekly pickups of items for kids – like diapers, wipes, baby food, kids books, and kids activity bags.
To be a part of this network where I can be among a community of parents who are also students – and to hear their experiences, and lean on them, and they can lean on me, and we can help one another with different strategies to get through this time – this has been very beneficial to me. It’s not just a community of other students who are parents. They also provide lots of resources and tools to help you maneuver through this difficult time.
