Attention Ohio PTA Advocates



Attention Ohio PTA Advocates

The House Appropriations Committee will markup its Labor, Health and Human Services and Education  (L-HHS-ED) Appropriations bill this Wednesday, July 13 at 10:00 AM, ET.  You can watch the webcast here.

As you know, PTA members have been advocating for funding of the Statewide Family Engagement Centers (SFECs) program. Unfortunately, the program was not included in the House L-HHS-ED appropriations subcommittee bill. This is a critical time to advocate for this important investment in family engagement and we need your help! National PTA would like for you to share the link below with your PTA members with representatives who sit on the House Appropriations Committee. The link will provide you with your representative’s phone number and talking points on SFECs. Note that you can only access the representative’s information if you are a constituent.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if we can provide assistance or answer any questions. We only have two days until the vote!

ACTION ALERT

Thank you for advocating on behalf of all children!
