Expanding support for student parents! State funding will assist adult learners at @SUNY_Dutchess and @MonroeCC by extending their child care services to include evenings and weekends. As more adult learners attend classes at SUNY, especially thanks to the successful SUNY Reconnect program, we will continue to take action to help these New Yorkers succeed on their path to upward mobility. 🔗 suny.edu/suny-news/press-rel…
