Congratulations to Alexandria's 5th graduating class of the Parent Leadership Training Institute.

The Parent Leadership Training Institute is a 20-week program that focuses on training caretakers to best advocate for their children and the children throughout the community.

The goals of PLTI are to teach parents to be an advocate for children and set an example for their children and families. To cultivate a community of parents within regions to support each other, and to increase the parent's interaction with their children.

By becoming advocates for the children, they are also advocating for good community practices and community engagement.

PLTI strives to acomplish many of the same things as ACTion Alexandria, and we are happy they are supporting children and families in Alexandria. We all benefit when more of us are actively engaged in our local community.
