[0] Mission Statement:
The Parent Leadership Training Institute enables parents to become advocates for children and communities. Parents’ opinions often go unheard. These community members may have the motivation and will to effect change, but not the advocacy skills to know where to begin. PLTI teaches parents who wish to improve children’s lifelong health, safety and education how to become practiced change agents for the next generation. Parents define the curriculum and participate in its evaluation and outcomes. Family supports, such as child care and dinners, are included. Each class of parents mentors the next class, creating a pyramid effect of community caring and developing a coalition of parent leaders.
OPEN-NOLA » Parent Leadership Training Institute
The Parent Leadership Training Institute trains, inspires and empowers parents to become effective advocates for children. PLTI is a statewide initiative created to improve the lifelong health, safety and learning of children by helping you develop the leadership skills to make real change – in schools, communities and state and local governments. Through PLTI’s adult learning experiences, you explore your passions, strengths, beliefs and ideas. You’ll then work to develop interpersonal and public communications skills, as well as deepening your understanding of government, media and civic relations.
