The moderator for the event was the National PTA outgoing president, Lois Jean White. The 832 respondents were asked to choose seven of the 14 categories and rank them in order of importance. Over four out of ten respondents selected parent involvement in school as the top violence prevention issue. Of the 22 percent who chose media violence as the most important, an overwhelming majority chose TV critical viewing, TV ratings and V-Chip education as the most important issue. National PTA, founded in 1897, is the largest volunteer child advocacy organization in the United States.
Membership is open to anyone who is concerned with the education, health, and welfare of children.
