Interprofessional Student-Parent Community
The Interprofessional Student-Parent Community (ISPC) is a student-focused group in the Academic Health Center which provides targeted programming to meet the needs of healthcare professional students who are parents.
The ISPC fosters an environment where:
parents help parents throughout their student experience
have staff support to learn and connect with one another

Student Parent Help Center
The SPHC is also active nationally, advocating for all student parents by participating in policy work groups, mentoring newly formed student parent programs, and co-founding two higher education organizations for student parent, program personnel, the NASPA Adult Learners and Students with Children Knowledge Community, and the Higher Education Alliance for Students with Children (HEAASC). We are also active across our own University of Minnesota campus, advocating for campus-based lactation resources and other family friendly practices.
In 2016, the SPHC began providing services to Graduate and Professional students with children. All SPHC programs and services are tailored to meet the specific needs of undergraduate and graduate students. For more information, please visit: https://sphc.umn.edu/graduate-student-services
