Homeschooling in Indiana
Indiana is one of the best states in America to homeschool. We are blessed with freedoms that many other homeschooling families around the country do not enjoy. We stand on the foundation of the homeschooling fathers and mothers who stood up for the God-given rights to parent and educate their children themselves.
Unaware to many of us, because of the current favorable legislation in Indiana, homeschooling is still under attack in our state and around the country. There are homeschooling parents, just like us, fighting for these freedoms even as you read this paragraph. Pray for these frontline servants.
It is our job as the next generation of homeschooling parents to ensure that these freedoms remain for us and for our children in the future.
Heart'n'Home strongly recommends that all homeschooling families prayerfully consider joining these groups:
Indiana Association of Home Educators
The importance of IAHE cannot be overstated. They tirelessly work in the statehouse pouring over legislation to ensure that the language in each bill is homeschool friendly. If a bill will place a burden on homeschooling families and restrict how God leads homeschooling fathers and mothers in raising up their children, they work hard to change those bills.
Their website is a must stop for Indiana homeschoolers. It contains Indiana specific information and encouragement, community connections, local and regional support, and so much more.
Membership to IAHE is free, however their indispensable work is funded through a few avenues two of them being:
You can support them by being a paid subscriber to their magazine, The Informer. Click here to learn more.
