PTA Advocacy

PTA speaks for every child with one voice. 

As the largest volunteer child advocacy organization in the nation, PTA is  the conscience of the country for issues affecting children and youth. Each year National PTA publishes a public policy platform that outlines policy priorities and recommendations for Congress.

Across the country, our members devote time and resources to advocating on issues that help make every child’s potential a reality. Their work affects legislative and/or regulatory policies on a state and/or local level.  PTA advocacy efforts include working with multiple organizations or coalitions through grassroots collaboration, raising public awareness on critical issues and developing advocacy training for their membership to create a larger voice from the community to influence positive change.

Check out the Fourth District Advocacy Communicator and all the great work that PTA is doing.

Sacramento Safari is Fourth District PTA’s annual two-day advocacy trip to our State Capitol. 

Orange County PTA members get to hear from key speakers on issues that affect children, youth and families; learn about the inner workings of state government; advocate directly to our legislators; and network with other PTA advocates.
