Welcome to Lead Your Homeschool Co-op! Do you desire a Christian community with families that fit? Do you find yourself up late at night googling “conflict resolution” and “how to build a community”? Do you dream of a sustainable homeschool group only to feel discouraged when policies fail, logistics get in the way or a conflict comes up again?
Hello! We are the Homeschool Community Builders.Together, we have more than 30 years of experience in leading successful homeschool groups.

In order to be a part of a sustainable Christian community, we stepped out in faith and trusted God’s plan to build the community that we desired. In this podcast, we will help you create Christ-centered policies, establish a close-knit culture, and develop strong leadership skills so that you can serve your community well.
So grab a pen and paper, be ready to take some notes, and be encouraged. You can do this!
