Parents Council

The Chapman Parents Council is a network of parents who are committed to the well-being and advancement of the university. It provides parents with increased opportunities to meet and get to know other parents, along with faculty, staff, trustees, students and alumni.

The council and its various committees work to promote Chapman to prospective students and their families, assist in coordinating relevant and entertaining family activities, serve as hosts at on-campus events, inform parents of university accomplishments and needs, and serve as liaisons between the university and the Chapman Parents in partnership with the Parent Relations office. The Parents Council committees include: Ambassador Committee, Outreach Committee and Annual Fund Committee. Leadership for these committees is headed by co-chairs. The Parents Council Executive Committee consists of the committee co-chairs and is lead by a National chairperson(s). Meet the Parents Council Board of Directors
