 The Words of Jesus
 


Loving Education At Home, Inc. is an organization of like-minded Christian home educators, dedicated to observing the biblical commands of Deuteronomy 6:4-9, Proverbs 22:6 and Ephesians 6:4. LEAH began in 1983 with five Christian families seeking support and fellowship. It grew into a statewide not-for-profit ministry providing support through a network of local chapters.

A board of directors is comprised of 11 elected volunteer positions; President,Vice President, Secretary,Treasurer, and seven Regional Representatives.

Support

The network of 150 local LEAH chapters currently serves over 3700 families. Your local chapter is the best place to go for help with getting started.

Regulatory And Legislative

LEAH serves as a watchdog to protect your right to home educate in New York State. This includes: working with HSLDA to monitor federal and state bills or regulations that would impact home education; serving on the Home Instruction Advisory Group (HIAG) committee to the State Education Department. And, LEAH maintains a Regulatory Manual that details and explains the home education regulations in New York State.

Education

Chapter leaders meetings with workshops for leadership training and an annual convention are just two of the ways LEAH works to help educate home educators.

Information

A quarterly newsletter (The Messenger), chapter leader mailings, and fax/e-mail updates keep open lines of communication for urgent legislative and regulatory issues, encouragement, and home education news, information, and resources.
