The Christian Home Educators Association of California is a non-profit ministry established in 1982 to provide information, support, and training to the home education community throughout the state.

Governed by an annually-elected board of directors, CHEA is a tax-exempt corporation and gifts or donations are tax-deductible.

In addition to the five-member Board of Directors, CHEA has a full-time executive director, two full-time and several part-time staff members, dozens of volunteers, and a statewide network of autonomous local home school groups.

Among its most important goals is the work CHEA does to foster an accurate and favorable image of home education to the general public and the community, cooperating with other home education organizations in pursuing common goals, and monitoring legislative activity by supporting a Special Consultant for Legislative Affairs.

The Home School Legal Defense Association is a non-profit advocacy organization established to defend and advance the constitutional right of parents to direct the education of their children and to protect family freedoms. Through annual memberships, HSLDA is tens of thousands of families united in service together, providing a strong voice when and where needed.

HSLDA advocates on the legal front by fully representing member families at every stage of proceedings. Each year, thousands of member families receive legal consultation by letter and phone, hundreds more are represented through negotiations with local officials, and dozens are represented in court proceedings. HSLDA also takes the offensive, filing actions to protect members against government intrusion and to establish legal precedent. On occasion, HSLDA will handle precedent-setting cases for non-members, as well.

HSLDA advocates on Capitol Hill by tracking federal legislation that affects home schooling and parental rights. HSLDA works to defeat or amend harmful bills, but also acts proactively, introducing legislation to protect and preserve family freedoms.

HSLDA advocates in state legislatures, at the invitation of state home school organizations, by assisting individual states in drafting language to improve their home school legal environment and to fight harmful legislation.

HSLDA advocates in the media by presenting articulate and knowledgeable spokesmen to the press on the subject of home schooling. HSLDA staff members are regularly called upon for radio, television, and print interviews, and their writings are frequently published in newspapers and magazines across the country. HSLDA’s own bimonthly magazine, The Home School Court Report, provides news and commentary on a host of current issues affecting home schoolers. And its two-minute daily radio broadcast, “Home School Heartbeat” can be heard on nearly 400 radio stations.

HSLDA advocates for the movement, by commissioning and presenting quality research on the progress of home schooling. Whether it’s in print, from the podium, or on-the-air, HSLDA provides insightful vision and leadership for the cause of home schooling.

Home School Legal Defense Association . . . tens of thousands of American families working through more than fifty dedicated staff members to preserve each other’s right to home school . . . together, “Advocates for Family & Freedom.”

Family Protection Ministries (FPM), directed by Roy Hanson, is the only
full-time ministry in Sacramento defending both parental rights and private home schooling freedoms in our state legislature (which passes more bills each year than Congress). Roy Hanson, with the capable assistance of Jim Davis, daily monitors thousands of pieces of legislation in California.

Against incredible odds, they have been used mightily by God to ensure
our freedoms have remained intact. They have been there for us for the
last fifteen years, winning battles every year in the legislature. If we
want to keep these freedoms, we need to support this ministry!
