Description:
Empowering diverse parents and youth to become leaders, learn the power of their voice and work collaboratively with other organizations, city/state leaders and other community members to support K-12 education, social and emotional learning and health outcomes.
Programs and Services:
The Central Ohio Parent Leadership Training Institute (COPLTI) is a pioneering initiative dedicated to empowering parents and guardians with the skills and knowledge necessary to become effective advocates for their children's education. As an integral component of this mission, COPLTI works in tandem with the Children's Leadership Training Institute (CLTI), a complementary program designed to directly engage children, particularly those in early elementary grades. While COPLTI focuses on equipping parents with leadership, advocacy, and policy understanding skills to influence positive changes in the educational system, CLTI operates parallelly, targeting children's literacy and educational development. CLTI, led by a team of experienced educators, provides a tailored curriculum that enhances children’s reading, comprehension, and early tech skills, fostering an environment where both parents and children grow and learn together. This synergistic approach ensures that while parents are being trained as advocates and leaders, their children are simultaneously receiving quality education and literacy support, creating a holistic and impactful educational ecosystem.
