UW Parents on Campus

About Us:

UW Parents on Campus was created to address the needs of students who happen to be parents enrolled at the University of Waterloo.   We are a group that is growing in numbers and, as such, is working to provide services such as networking parents at UW with other parents, providing child friendly spaces and activities, offering advice on available services on campus and in the K-W area, and, arguably most importantly, acting as a voice for these students in times when it is clear certain needed services are not easily accessible or are unavailable.

*The UW Parents Working group is starting up again!  If you are interested in getting involved or want more information about the services we offer, please contact Sophia at uwparents@gmail.com

Our Mandate:

  1. To help facilitate a supportive environment on campus for students and parents
    of any gender and orientation, and to be an on campus
    presence for these students
  2. To provide resources and information to parents and parents-to-be
    that will help to enrich their experience both as parents and as students at UW, and take into consideration their unique needs.
  3. To arrange on campus social events that take into consideration this
    unique demographic and offer events that are child and partner (if applicable) friendly.
