The HELP Center is pleased to announce our continued sponsorship of SPHC's Adopt-A-Family program. This program provides holiday assistance to our own low income student parent families who may not otherwise have been able to celebrate the holiday season due to economic hardship. This year through a new collaboration with U of M Parent Program, we were able to increase the number of families assisted from 6-10 annually to 27. The Parent Program is a unit of our host department, the Office for Student Affairs, and serves parents of current and former U of M students. (This "parent-to-parent" holiday program will hopefully become an ongoing collaboration between the SPHC and the Parent Program.)
