What is an Advocacy Alert?

 

NYS PTA holds positions on a variety of issues that affect the education, health and welfare of children and youth. Occasionally, an issue comes to the forefront with an emergent need to either apprise membership of newly acquired information or to encourage members to Take Action in support of or opposition to state or federal regulations, policy or legislation. Alerts will be posted to this site and will often be sent through our NYS PTA electronic advocacy tool, CapWiz to subscribers. Members should periodically check this site for alerts to Take
Action! Click here to receive alerts and action requests as they are posted.
