Welcome new families to the Swarthmore community through regional and on-campus events and individual outreach. Help new families get engaged with College events and possibly volunteer. Create a sense of community among Swarthmore families.

Career Ambassadors
Provide career expertise and foster networking between students and families of students, particularly through SwatLink. Collaborate with the offices of Career Services and the Center for Innovation and Leadership on innovative programming.

First Generation and Low Income (FLI) Ambassadors
Help families, especially first-generation and low-income families, to feel welcome at Swarthmore and all Family Ambassador events. Help the College better understand the needs of FLI families.
