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.
