Child Advocacy and Mother's Support Group

The South Florida Preschool PTA is a child advocacy and mother's support group for parents of children newborn to 6.  There are no geographical boundaries or religious affiliations and no preschool enrollment requirements.  Our mission is to speak up on behalf of the needs of children, to help parents perform the difficult job of rearing and nurturing children and to encourage parent involvement in schools.
