Family Network Membership

 

About the UCA Family Network

The UCA Family Network is dedicated to helping families with their transition into the University and offering support, information, and problem-solving throughout a student’s career at UCA. The Family Network offers opportunities for families to more closely partner with the university and will help lead you to UCA services and resources to support your Bear’s success. Joining the Family Network is the easiest way to share the UCA experience with your student!

If you are a current member of the UCA Family Network and have a desire to get more involved in a leadership position within the Family Network, we encourage you to learn more about the Parent and Family Advisory Council.
