PTA Connected: Build Up and Belong


Build up and belong

National PTA has teamed up with Discord to facilitate meaningful technology discussions between teens and their parents and caregivers.  Discord is committed to doing their part to create a healthier digital environment for their users and help make Discord even better for students, teachers, and educators. The PTA Connected: Build Up and Belong program, sponsored by Discord.

  Discord is a voice, video and text communications service on a mission to create space for everyone to find belonging. With over 150 million monthly active users across 19 million servers, Discord helps friends and communities of all sizes come together to hang out and explore their interests—from art projects and family trips to homework and shared hobbies. It's a home for communities of any size, but it's most widely used by small and active groups of people who talk regularly. The vast majority of servers are private, invite-only spaces for groups of friends and communities to stay in touch and spend time together. There are also larger, more open communities, generally centered around specific topics such as popular games like Minecraft and Fortnite.
