The UBC Home Away from Home Program

We are seeking to re-establish a former and successful outreach program that provides a UBC family for an MSU student. Here is a list of the kinds of service the families provided to an MSU student assigned to their care.
Goal–Pair a UBC family with one or two MSU students to meet some or all of the following student needs:
▪ Meal or dinner with family 1 to 4 times a month.
▪ Occasional transportation as needed
▪ Introduction to community resources, i.e., car repair, shopping bargains, fun things to do.
▪ Provide advice and counsel on adjusting to college life as needed.
Off campus home away from home such as quiet place to study for finals, spare bedroom during campus holidays, a place to come hang out with adult company.
If you would be interested in participating in this program, either as a student or as a potential home away from home, please let us know!
