Transfer Nation Talks

Centering Students with Dependents in Policy & Practice

Transfer Nation Season 4 Episode 7

Is it transfer student parents or parenting transfer students? Maybe transfer students with dependents? The multifaceted identities of student parents who transfer challenge standard mechanisms of classification, data collection, and institutional structure. Maya Valree, Senior Policy Analyst at EdTrust-West, joins Dr. Heather Adams to discuss trends in policy and practice designed to center and support parenting students through their postsecondary journey, including implications for transfer practitioners. 

Check out the important work happening at EdTrust-West and The California Alliance for Parent Student Success
