The mission of California Northstate University (CNU) “Non-traditional students And their Partners (NAP)” is to create a forum for students who have a non-traditional background (work experience, age, marital/family status, and/or personal affinities and preferences) and their partners (romantic partners, spouses, children, and/or other supporters). CNU NAP’s primary goals are to:

- Foster connections between non-traditional students and their partners to facilitate mutual support.

- Advocate on behalf of non-traditional students and raise awareness of the challenges faced by their community.

- Welcome incoming non-traditional students and connect them to local resources (housing/neighborhood research, childcare options, etc).
