“We felt alone, singled out, and abused by our local school system. HSLDA gave us the ability to go through with our hardest decision.”

“HSLDA means having an advocate as homeschooling pioneers in the 1980s when nobody in our life had homeschooled before and no one believed we should.”

“We needed HSLDA, personally, twice in 13 years of homeschooling. However, even more important is that they are protecting our freedoms every single day.”

“We joined HSLDA about 18 years ago to help support other homeschoolers who were in difficult states. The day a social worker showed up on our doorsteps, we understood just how powerful it was to have the attorney deal with it and not to be alone.”

“HSLDA means confidence and protection to our military family of nine while homeschooling for nine years, on three different continents, three countries, and three states.”

“HSLDA membership, $115. Feeling secure and confident next time a social worker shows up on my doorstep, priceless.”

“While my late husband was dying, HSLDA protected our family when we had [social services] accusations. Chris Klicka prayed for us and eased our emotional pain.”

“My brothers and I were homeschooled 32 years ago. Today we homeschool our 18 children. In 30 years you’ll have protected 103 educations. Thank you HSLDA.”

“I told my (then) 5-year-old son, who didn’t want to learn to read, that if I didn’t teach him I would get in trouble and go to jail. He slowly shook his head side to side and said, ‘I sure am going to miss you.’ ”
