NCFDD: Supporting Academic Parents: Recommended Policies and Practices

This webinar takes a two-pronged approach to assist both (1) individual faculty members who are parents and (2) academic institutions in better supporting academic parents. This webinar will also provide evidence-based recommendations to help individual parents successfully navigate their academic careers and the tenure process, while also presenting information that institutions and administrators can utilize to catalyze broader institutional change.
