Our Mission
The mission of the Greater Rochester Parent Leadership Training Institute is to build bridges and advocacy skills to support parents becoming leading advocates for children. Parents’ opinions are often unheard. They lack the skills, but not the motivation or will to change their children’s lives. PLTI teaches parents how to become practiced change agents for the next generation to improve the lifelong health, safety, and learning of children. PLTI differentiates itself by embracing a cross-race, cross-class, and parent-informed, pro-social educational approach. Learn More about participating in our program!
