For Neighbors in Action this week, we learn about the MSU Student Parent Resource Center within the MSU Family Resource Center. They help MSU students who also happen to be parents navigate college life.

The mission of MSU’s Family Resource Center is to help MSU students, staff, and faculty, navigate their responsibilities at work, school, and home. One way they provide that help is through the Student Parent Resource Center, which offers support to MSU students who are parents so that they can be successful.

For Neighbors in Action this week, we talk with Student Parent Resource Center coordinator Kimberly Steed-Page and administrative assistant Laraine Walton.

Current State is always looking for more nominations for our “Neighbors In Action” feature. Please help us out and e-mail us your suggestions to currentstate@wkar.org. Put ‘Neighbors in Action’ in the subject line. Or tweet us: @KARCurrentState and tell us a little about why you think they should be featured.
