Membership

Mission PTA:
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to help us improve the lives of all kids!

Our 2025-2026 Membership Toolkit is bursting with logos, graphics, flyers, and more for your unit to personalize and use to build your membership! Don't see exactly what you want to use? We've included a folder of just the core graphics for our theme. See a theme you like and want to put your PTA's official PTA logo on it? We will be soon be making them editable!

You aren't tied down with these logos, though. Your unit is welcome to use your own theme! Email your logos and theme to our Membership Chair, Julie Dodson, by September 15 to be entered into a HUGE giveaway drawing!

Membership Mission Achievements

As you complete each membership milestone, report in to your FSR - your achievements deserve to be celebrated! Check out the mission objectives already accomplished this year… and keep the momentum going!

Indiana PTA celebrates the hard work of our local units through our Membership Awards Program. These awards recognize PTAs and PTSAs that grow, engage, and sustain their membership, highlighting the impact strong membership has on schools and communities.

Units of all sizes have the opportunity to be honored for their dedication, creativity, and success in building membership. Together, we show that every member makes a difference.

Learn more about National PTA's new membership campaign:
PTA For Your Child!

Today, PTA’s role is more important than ever in connecting parents, teachers and administrators, and supporting critical school needs. We want every family in our schools to join PTA, because we can do more together than apart.

National PTA's new membership campaign — PTA For Your Child — is designed to engage and excite new members and existing members by making the work of the PTA more visible and highlighting the value and impact of PTA.

To bolster your membership recruitment activities, National PTA has developed a suite of materials, including a campaign toolkit that outlines how to effectively communicate the value of PTA membership, a suite of dynamic visuals and collateral materials, and a campaign rollout checklist.

Download the toolkit here.

Your Membership At Work

At the State Level....

Being a member of your local PTA also makes you a member of Indiana PTA as well and National PTA

Indiana PTA will review your treasury books each year, if you would like and with your help, we will file required tax forms to help to keep you compliant with the Internal Revenue Service as well as the Indiana Department of Revenue.

Indiana PTA will advocate for children and youth at the statehouse. How we determine what to advocate for and what side of the issue to be on is based on our resolutions and legislative priorities and issues that you vote on at our state convention.

Indiana PTA provides trainings, both in-person and virtual, to help you with best practices for your PTA and your officers. We also provide networking opportunities for your unit to glean information from other PTAs across the state.
