The Office of Human Resources implements the Student Parent Child Care Subsidy Program at all Penn State campus locations. The goal is to provide undergraduate and graduate student parents with financial assistance for safe, quality childcare, thereby enabling them to achieve their academic goals.
Student parents also may receive financial assistance for sick and emergency care, summer childcare and care during finals and mid-term periods.
