Welcome!

Welcome to the home of the Higher Education Alliance for Residential Single Parent Programs. The goal of the Alliance is to empower single parents as they take the necessary actions to change the direction of their lives. The institutions involved in the Higher Education Alliance have deliberately linked college and university residential single parent support programs to assist single-parent families as they make decisions about higher education. Additionally the Alliance provides social and academic support to single parents in their pursuit of higher education while promoting national awareness through networking, education, and advocacy.

Now that you have found us, take the steps to make your dreams a reality. Read the stories of parents just like you. Investigate the various colleges and universities to determine which would be the best fit for you and your children. Make some appointments at the institutions that most appeal to you to find out about the degrees offered. Talk to a career counselor about your talents and goals for the future. Finally, take the plunge and enroll!! We look forward to hearing from you as you move forward with your education.
