PACTA’s State Advocacy Day is scheduled for April 25, 2023 in Harrisburg. We will start the day at 8:30 a.m. at the Capitol Complex. After brief remarks and distribution of legislative packets, you may head to your legislative visits. There will be CTCs/schools exhibiting in the rotunda.
Visits should be scheduled between 9:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m.
We have an opportunity this year to see a funding increase for career and technical education as well as legislation passed that will have a positive impact on career and technical education.
