You can volunteer for major activities such as planning Family Weekend, participation on Orientation panels, and/or serve as Regional Area Coordinators to host send offs and be a contact for incoming parents. The Parents Association meets on campus twice a year to plan the year’s activities.

Special Projects
A portion of the Parents Association budget is designated annually for projects to benefit all UNF students. Grants are awarded through an application process to departments within the Division of Student Affairs and student organizations in good standing with Club Alliance who are working to enhance and enrich the student experience. The Parents Association funded grants totaling $24,311 for the 2011-12 school year.
Become a Parents Association regional director or officer

Many of you asked about volunteering during Orientation. We need volunteers to assist with events and to take an active role in creating a Parent’s Council with by-laws and specific duties throughout the year. If you are interested, please e-mail parents@unf.edu for an application.
