Our Mission Statement: The CCP Faculty/Staff Parent Support Group provides resources for all facets of family life from being a new parent to raising toddlers, tweens, teens, and caring for aging parents. As a community of people dealing with various aspects of family life, the Parent/Staff Faculty Group is open to all CCP faculty and staff. This group shares resources, experiences, and information, and is a voice of support for all types of families. The CCP FSPSG works to create awareness and support that enables members to be good parents, good family members, and find a healthy work-family life balance. Please contact Melissa Altman-Traub or Cherise Shane if you would like to be added to this group in Canvas.
