Democracy Includes Everyone...
The Parent Leadership Training Institute of Alexandria seeks to enable parents to become leading advocates for children.
Washington Post quotes Woodson:
Former Councilwoman Joyce Woodson was quoted in a

Post article
about forming a Parent Leadership Training Institute
in Alexandria, Virginia. The city modeled its program on the Connecticut PLTI

The Post observed that PLTI
bills itself as "nothing short of a means to reinvigorate democracy."
