New Website for Kids and Families to Learn about Pleasanton Community

The Youth Master Plan Oversight Committee has developed the website called Ptownlife.org. What do you think about it?

Submitted by: City of Pleasanton

The has unveiled a new website specifically designed around the needs and interests of youth and families. Ptownlife.org serves teens and families with children of all ages, providing a bridge between the community and an array of activities, services and resources, and youth job/volunteer opportunities.

The youth-centric site’s web team is comprised of Pleasanton teens who guide its design and content. Students promote the site, report on new and interesting things happening in the community, take photos, and write articles to post on the site.

Ptownlife.org is a direct outcome of the Pleasanton Youth Master Plan which was developed to guide the health, safety, and well-being of Pleasanton’s children and youth today and into the future. It presents a long-term vision, goals and strategies for meeting their needs and provides elected officials, commission members, City and School District staff, community leaders, and youth serving organizations guidance on how these needs can be met.

Community youth organizations interested in participating in the website must become a registered member. Ptownlife.org partners are featured with a profile page with contacts, a website link, program details, services and products offered. Organization special events can also be added to the Calendar, and youth job opportunities can also be posted.

For more information, please visit www.Ptownlife.org, or call Nicole Thomas at (925) 931-3474.

Thanks for your feedback. We sincerely appreciate it as it's nice to get some dialogue going onRead More these blogs. Yes we realize that many businesses still rely on faxing. That's why we put this video together. So that way when the people who don't rely on them have to communicate with those that do, that they have an easy way to do so.
