We are a nonprofit organization providing direct support and national advocacy & research for student parents in college 💜
Great news — applications for the FamilyU Seal are now open!
The FamilyU Seal is a national certification recognizing higher education institutions and nonprofit organizations that show measurable, intentional support for student parents and their families.
Through the Seal program, we celebrate organizations that are investing in student parent success, raising awareness of this often-overlooked student population, and helping build a stronger future for families and communities.
In this video, you'll hear from last year's Nonprofit Exemplar winner, New Legacy Charter School, whose innovative approach helps teen parents continue their education while caring for their children and preparing for long-term success.
If your institution or nonprofit organization is committed to serving student parents, we encourage you to apply and share your work with a national audience. Learn more and submit your application today 🔗 https://www.generationhope.org/familyu-seal
There’s still time to join FamilyU Cohort 6! Generation Hope has extended the application deadline to June 30 and opened two additional spots for institutions interested in advancing outcomes for student parents and their families.
Today, 1 in 5 college students is raising children while pursuing a degree, yet higher education systems are often not designed with student parents’ realities in mind. Balancing coursework, childcare, and financial obligations requires huge commitment, and institutions play an important role in ensuring student parents have the support they need to reach graduation.
Through the FamilyU Cohort, colleges and universities receive tools, guidance, and a community of practice to help drive meaningful institutional change for student parents and their families.
If your institution is ready to strengthen support for student parents and create lasting, multi-generational impact, we encourage you to apply.
Application deadline is now Tuesday, June 30 – learn more and submit your application https://www.generationhope.org/familyucohort

We've extended the application deadline for the 2026 FamilyU Cohort to June 30!
Across the country, colleges and universities are working to better support student parents and their families. Through the FamilyU Cohort, institutions come together to learn, collaborate, and implement strategies that help student parents stay enrolled, complete their degrees, and create brighter futures for their families.
If your institution is looking to strengthen support for student parents, this is an opportunity to join a network of peers committed to advancing family-inclusive policies, practices, and systems on campus.
The application deadline has been extended to Tuesday, June 30, giving interested institutions additional time to apply and become part of the next cohort.
We look forward to welcoming the next group of colleges and universities dedicated to making higher education work better for student parent families.
