Parents/Family

A student being dropped off at residence by their parents

We're here for you!

We know this is a big transition for everyone and that you are an important resource for your student. We have developed supports to ensure you feel informed as your student (and you) embark on this new journey!  

Ways to connect with us

Parent/Family Curated Video Links

We have collected links and videos that might help you learn more about what supports Western has to offer. We understand it can be overwhelming to support your student. We will continue to add more videos throughout the summer.
