Parents Association
![]() |
The purpose of the Parents Association is to enhance the quality of life for students at the University of Alabama by serving as a communication link between the University and the parents of undergraduate students. Formed in the Spring of 1993, it enables parents to both actively participate in the life of their student and to interact with and lend support to other parents. The Parents Association is a self-supporting organization that functions on the yearly donations by its members.

- sponsoring a Family Weekend and an Honors Day reception
