We know that every day, State, regional and local PTAs across the country and around the world go above and beyond to advocate for children. Their efforts have made real, tangible improvements for children, families and communities. At this year’s Legislative Conference, we want to take the opportunity to showcase their efforts – and learn from them.
To achieve this objective, National PTA is proud to announce that this year’s Legislative Conference will feature PTA Advocacy Spotlight presentations. This is an opportunity for State, regional or local PTAs to share stories of an issue that inspired them to take action for kids. Presentations should focus on issues included in National PTA’s Public Policy Agenda and include strategies and tactics that other PTAs could emulate.
We are currently accepting proposals for PTA Advocacy Spotlights. The application and additional information about PTA Advocacy Spotlight presentations can be found here. This link will take you directly to the application. The LegCon web page (www.PTA.org/LegCon) will be updated next week and will include a link to the application as well as the scoring rubric.
We encourage you to consider submitting a proposal and to share this opportunity with your members. We appreciate your support in making your members aware of this unique opportunity.
Applications for PTA Advocacy Spotlight close on November 12 at 11:59 pm ET.
If you have questions or need additional information, please contact Government Affairs staff at LegCon@PTA.org
