Homeschooling laws vary from state to state. You really should check with your statewide homeschooling organization. Most state organizations have their own legal department to answer questions for the membership. In fact, if you aren’t already a member, I recommend you join one. They can be a terrific source of information, not to mention comfort.

As for Social Security, it is a federal program. Generally, kids with disablities are able to draw benefits but there are schooling regulations in order to qualify. Again each state is different.

You don’t find any information about the “host group,” because their is no group. Sadly, the person who started this site passed away and is now maintained by volunteers. There is no group, no coalition, nothing.

Anyone can submit information for posting. Since, I am the editor, I evaluate the information before it is posted. So far, I believe everything that has been submitted for posting, has been posted.

This website is not about showing how bad HSLDA is, we are about providing accurate information to those who are considering membership. We don’t charge anything for the information provided here, we don’t ask for donations and we don’t advertise anywhere. You get what you pay for.

Of course, the cover story was that we fell below the minimum number of HSLDA members, which was true. But other organizations, which did not have the minimum number continued to be listed. Some of those didn’t even have that number of members, much less HSLDA members. The difference is that they were stated to be religious groups.

HSLDA professes to be a homeschool organization, but they really are a political organization which uses homeschoolers to achieve their political goals.
