Special Events
To be announced
Parents' Organization of SVTC
The Parents’ Organization of SVTC (PO), the first of its kind in Virginia, was founded by the late Elise H.
Strotmeyer in 1973. According to Mrs. Strotmeyer, this first Parents’ Organization led the way for the formation of
similar groups at the other four state training centers. In addition to the PO’s continuous support and cooperation
with SVTC’s administration and staff for a commitment to the welfare of the individuals, the organization has made
noteworthy accomplishments such as: provided the sign that marks the entrance to SVTC; lobbied on numerous occasions
for the Center’s budgetary requests; and participated in and/or provided financial support for many activities for the
individuals. All parents, guardians, relatives and friends of SVTC’s individuals are welcome to join the group in
support of its ongoing efforts. The PO meets bimonthly at Southside Virginia Training Center.
