PLTI will graduate its 6th class of leaders on May 11th at 7:00pm in the City Council Chambers, City Hall, 301 King Street, Alexandria. Each of the students had the challenge of developing a community service project and learned the excitement and challenge of civic engagement.
The public is invited to attend the ceremony and celebrate with our graduates, their friends and families at a reception following in the Vola Lawson Lobby.

Democracy Includes Everyone...
The Parent Leadership Training Institute of Alexandria seeks to enable parents to become leading advocates for children.
Washington Post quotes Woodson:
Former Councilwoman Joyce Woodson was quoted in a
Washington
Post article
about forming a Parent Leadership Training Institute
in Alexandria, Virginia. The city modeled its program on the Connecticut PLTI
program, founded by the Connecticut Commission on Children 15 years ago.
The Post observed that PLTI
bills itself as "nothing short of a means to reinvigorate democracy."
