The Office of Student & Family Support Services is excited to announce a new resource for the parents, families, guardians, and supporters of UMass Lowell Students. The River Hawk Family Portal, launched in late spring 2022, is an engagement platform designed to communicate and interact with families. The portal offers a calendar of important dates, regular email announcements and newsletters, and informational posts customized to the interests and needs of families. With over 8500 members in the system, the River Hawk Family Portal is a critical tool in successfully partnering with parents and families to help promote student success and retention.

The portal also offers the opportunity for colleges, departments, and offices to have faculty and staff serve as “content creators,” where each department can create and post information about its programs, services, announcements, and tips/advice to families. If you or someone from your area is interested in becoming a content creator, please reach out to Marshall Greenleaf, Ph.D., at Marshall_Greenleaf@uml.edu.

We also welcome faculty and staff that are interested in the portal to register for an account and check-out all that the portal offers! If you are interested, visit the portal at: uml.campusesp.com.
