Support the AB 2458: Greater Accessibility, Information, Notice, and Support (GAINS) for Student Parents Act

California's continued legislative progress in support of student parents is gaining momentum as AB 2458, the GAINS for Student Parents Act, moves into the appropriations committee. This pivotal moment calls for unified action as we strive to ensure its passage. California is home to roughly 400,000 student parents, a majority of whom are first-generation students of color.

The California Alliance for Student Parent Success, alongside the Michelson Center for Public Policy, Cal State Student Association, Generation Hope, uAspire, and UNITE-LA, are championing AB 2458. This crucial legislation aims to strengthen support for student parents by enabling colleges to better identify and assist them, while also enhancing access to vital financial aid resources to ensure their success in college.
