关于我们
Parent Leadership Training Institute (PLTI) believes that families, communities, and democracy are strengthened when parents have the skills to maximize child outcomes at home, in schools, in their neighborhood, and in public policy. PLTI includes the following: a 21-week leadership and civics course and curriculum (childcare and meals provided) with nationally trained facilitators, a framework for parents to develop their own community leadership projects, and individualized coaching and community connections to advance parents' civic engagement during the program and after graduation. Over the course of the program, PLTI-KC parents start to not only see themselves in leadership positions, but know they can take collective action to solve problems that affect them, their families, and their communities.

Our parent leaders are leveling up! ?? They've been diving deep into the art of communication, learning how to craft powerful messages to drive change. That was the focus for Class 5 and set a strong foundation for their future work to craft messages that move people toward change. #PLTIKC #ParentLeadership #Advocacy
