Our mission is to make every child's potential a reality by engaging and empowering families and communities to advocate for all children.
Founded in 1906 by Mrs. Emery Keyes, Arizona PTA is a State Congress under the National Parents and Teacher's Association. We are an active all-volunteer board supporting, training, mentoring, developing and guiding Arizona local PTA and PTSA units. We advocate at the Arizona State Legislature regarding children's health and safety, education and family engagement.
