Facebook Resource for Parents and Families

You are invited to join the "Lewis & Clark College parents and families" Facebook page. The page was created by a Pio Parent so parents and families would have a safe place to come together to share news, information, and support. Note: This group is parent-managed; it is not maintained by Lewis & Clark College, nor by any officially recognized group affiliated with Lewis & Clark College, although friendly L&C staff may peek in once in a while.
