Childcare Subsidy

Graduate and professional students with children face the same academic requirements as those without children but do so with the additional challenges of parenting. While many parenting issues are beyond the scope of governmental assistance, GPSA is in the unique position to increase the quality of academic experience for a large subsection of graduate and professional students by subsidizing evening child care for its constituents. This subsidy will allow graduate and professional students with children to more fully participate in campus life and to better meet the requirements of their degree programs by partially subsidizing select childcare costs. Furthermore, this program contributes to the overall academic health and cultural vibrancy of Washington State University by encouraging graduate and professional student parents to participate in the opportunities of their respective programs of study more fully than possible under their existing child care burden. An evening childcare subsidy can strengthen the educational experience for all students at WSU by allowing graduate and professional student parents to add their voice and diverse perspectives to a greater range of campus events.
