UIW Parent and Family Association

The UIW Parent and Family Association will strive to increase parent involvement in the Mission of the University through two direct measures:

The Association will help prepare parents for the changes and challenges their student(s) will face in a university setting.
The Association will encourage involvement from current parents through mentoring, internship opportunities, campus activities and special events.

The UIW Parent and Family Association members are also encouraged to get involved in the recruitment of new students, and participate in Parent and Family Day and other events hosted by the UIW departments of Alumni, Campus Engagement, First Year Engagement, Career Services and Admissions.
