A Note From the Director
Chuck Hurst

Life can change so quickly! One day we’re strolling along through our daily routines and the next we’re feeling like our very way of life is being threatened.

With the threat of House Resolution 6 in 1994, the specter of federal regulations constricting homeschool freedoms pushed families to respond en masse and, by God’s grace, onerous restrictions were averted. In early 2008, homeschooling liberties in California were threatened by a misguided court decision. Thousands of families rose up to let their voices be heard and the California Court of Appeal has agreed to rehear the case in question. While their original ruling has now been vacated, this battle is far from over.

Imagine what it would be like, however, if you were the only family whose homeschool was being threatened. Now imagine that the threat you’re facing is not legislative or legal, but a trying personal circumstance such as the death of your spouse, a separation, a heartbreaking diagnosis, or the loss of your family’s income.

The emotions you just imagined feeling are all too real to many of our fellow homeschoolers who are quietly responding every day to their own family crises and uncertain future.

Just as homeschoolers across the country recently rallied when Californians’ homeschooling freedoms were threatened, please join with us in helping individual families face the crises that threaten what they, too, hold dear.
