The Student Parent Success Program (SPSP) assists UWM student parents in their efforts to attain a higher education. The program provides students with professional and personal support by providing them access to a support team who serves as a first point of contact for all concerns. The SPSP team assess students needs and provides them with resources, workshops and/or referrals to other on-campus or community programs. SPSP is a centralized, multi-purpose campus resource where student parents can seek advice, develop leadership skills, and build connections with other student parents at all UWM campuses.
