More on-campus diaper changing stations coming soon!

Lactation rooms are places were moms can nurse or pump in a private, comfortable, and safe environment. 

Request access to a GCC Lactation Room here.

Contact Aarin Edwards at aedwards@glendale.edu for more information about lactation rooms. 

If your little ones need a place to stretch their legs, try Plaza Vaquero (the grass in front of the Administration building), the area around the Library Building, or Sierra Vista Plaza.

Don't forget: minors must be supervised by an adult at all times.

"As a parenting student, you are setting in motion an educational path that will have an impact on many future generations of your family. We want you to remember that the challenges you face as a parenting student do not come from any failure on your part to be "organized enough," "hard-working enough," or "smart enough." What you're doing is harder than it is for other students, but it is twice as important. 

On your toughest days, imagine yourself standing on stage on the GCC football field, wearing a cap and gown, with your diploma in your hand. Then, imagine looking out into the audience and seeing your children watching you graduate. Your children will grow up and and say "My mom graduated from college. My dad graduated from college. So, I'm going to graduate from college, too."

Stop by our offices for coloring books, crayons, diapers, toys, or just to have a friendly, supportive chat. Crying babies are always welcome in the CalWORKs office. ♥" -- Aarin Edwards

Through the program, you may be eligible for meal vouchers, TAP cards, parking permits, and book vouchers. We also offer social mixers and events to help you get acquainted with your peers.

"As a parent, it is extremely important that GCC students and faculty feel like they can bring their students to campus when needed! We all know how challenging it can be when there is no one to help out and there are classes and/or meetings to attend. If we all help each other just a bit, we all succeed! (Plus, our kids get a great view of what it's like to be on a college campus -- a win-win situation!)" -- Katie Datko
