 PTA Has New Home in Washington, DC      

A special message from Chuck Saylors

As you may know, 113 years ago PTA was founded and chartered in Washington DC; in the 1930's the association relocated to Chicago; a central hub for the railroad industry. Several years ago PTA outgrew its building in downtown and has since been working from leased property. From the day PTA sold its building, PTA has been working to find our association a new home.

On August 14, 2009, the PTA Board voted unanimously to purchase a property in the Washington DC area... So we're moving back home! In moving our headquarters back to Washington, DC, PTA will be able to have an appreciable asset for our association, we'll be in the city that houses the most non-profits in the nation, and we'll be better positioned to continue being the premier parent association in the country on Capitol Hill.  These opportunities will allow PTA to grow our leadership and service capabilities, thus making us more attractive to a wider array of prospective donors.
