Since its organization in 1897, NYS PTA has long been recognized as a powerful force working for children. When you join the PTA, you immediately become a member of both the state and national organizations as well as your local unit. It is through membership in the New York State and National PTAs that you, your unit, and, most importantly, your children will benefit.

Important Membership Information

Membership Card Confirmation - Record receipt of your membership cards here.

Membership cards will be in the mail by August 15. The packet is mailed to the address of the president on file with NYS PTA.

In order to receive your cards, it is important that your PTA unit has fulfilled the following requirements:

•  The Annual Officers' Contact Information Update (Form A) was entered online or returned to your Region Director.

• Your unit has paid for insurance for current school year. 

• Your unit paid for at least 25 members for the previous school year. If you have fewer than 25 members, you need to contact your Region Membership Chair or Region Director for guidance.

If all three of these items have been accomplished, then your unit has met its obligations in order to receive the new membership card mailing! If not, then you need to address the above issues in order to ensure receipt of your cards to begin your membership drive.

If you do not have your membership cards by the end of August, please contact your Region Director for assistance.
