About PTA
Join us in the goal of:
|
|
- PTA is the nation's original parent group in schools. We are the nation's premier resource for parent involvement.
- PTA is a national, grassroots, not-for-profit association; neither the association not its leaders make any profit or receive any financial benefit from PTA activities.
- PTA has millions of members in more than 23,000 local units.
- PTA is run by volunteers and led by volunteers, that are accountable to the members, parents, and schools.
- Members receive the information and training they need to advocate effectively at the local, state, and national levels for funding programs and services for their schools.
- PTA is an inclusion association that is open to all those who care about children and schools.
- Each of the 23,000 local units selects the programs and activities that it will undertake to address the needs of its local school and children. While National PTA creates many successful programs for local units to use, there are not PTA-mandated programs.
- Members receive special discounts and promotional offers from PTA National Member Benefits Providers.
