Student Parents Speak Forum: March 17, 2021, 3-5 p.m

Attention:
Faculty, Administrators, Staff  and Students

Please join student parents from MSU, LCC, Capital Area College Access Network and Stepping Up Together Teen Parent program as they provide testimonials regarding the barriers, challenges, opportunities, and solutions to support their transition and persistence in college while caring for their young children. The data is clear that students who themselves are raising young children are more likely to experience poverty and high rates of stress, drop out of school, and be less healthy. Yet the research confirms that investment in both generations - parents and their young children - have long lasting return on investment for the family and society in increased early literacy, health outcomes, and economic security.  Please click this link to register for the webinar, and the ZOOM login information will be emailed to you.
