Welcome!

Riverside Council chartered in August 1928.  We currently have 36 PTA units in the Riverside Unified School District. 

We provide monthly meetings to support, train, and make available important information to help coordinate the efforts of all our units.  

 Council Mission Statement

  • To support and speak on behalf of children in schools, in the community and before governmental bodies and other organizations that make decisions affecting children.

  • To assist parents in developing the skills they need to raise and protect their children.

  • To encourage parent and public involvement in the public schools.

23rd District PTA Mission Statement

     The Twenty-third District PTA of Riverside County stands united as an advocate for children and youth.  Our mission is to serve, support and unite the PTA Councils and Units. We will provide leadership, resources, information, advocacy and access at county and state levels, through training, communication and collaboration.

California State PTA Mission Statement

     The mission of the California State PTA is to positively impact the lives of all children and families by representing our members and empowering and supporting them with skills in advocacy, leadership, and communication.

California State PTA Core Values

     The California State PTA is a professional, non-profit volunteer organization committed to the well-being of all children.  We believe every adult has a responsibility to ensure that all children develop to their full potential.  We believe parents are children's first teachers and that parent involvement is essential throughout a child's educational experience.  We believe that family is the basic unit of society responsible for the support and nurturing of all children, and recognize that "the family" may be defined in many ways.  We believe our responsibility includes advocating for the safety and welfare of all children and the opportunity for a quality public education for each child.
