One of the PTAs
purposes is “to secure adequate laws for the care and protection of
children and youth.” Since its inception in 1897, National PTA has
recognized that an organization dedicated to the welfare of children
and youth must inevitably concern itself with the laws that affect or
may be needed to protect children. Local, council, district, and state
PTAs join the National PTA in speaking out for federal legislation
that promote the welfare of children and youth.
Local, council,
and district PTAs join the Illinois PTA in speaking out for state
legislation that promote the welfare of children and youth.
National PTA has
an action network designed to supply members with information
regarding legislative issues as they pertain to children. This
network is a grassroots advocacy system that provides direct contact
by PTA members with members of congress. To join, this national
network,

Hunting Ridge PTA
also encourages all members to speak out on state and local
legislation that promotes the welfare of children and youth. If you
