Homeschool parents, take an evening just for you! Join us monthly for encouragement, fresh perspective, and community as you build a homeschool you love. Adults only.

Homeschooling can be both rewarding and overwhelming. "A Gathering Place for Homeschool Parents" is a monthly evening set aside just for homeschooling caregivers: a chance to step away from the daily chaos, gain fresh perspective, and leave feeling encouraged and equipped.

Each month focuses on a practical theme to help you strengthen the foundation of your homeschool, such as finding your family's rhythm, building confidence in your choices, and navigating the hard days. You'll leave with real, usable ideas, a printed note-taking worksheet and reminder quotes to help you stay focused on your goals, and the chance to connect with other caregivers who understand the journey. Whether you're just starting out or have been homeschooling for years, there's a seat for you here.

This program is for adults only. Registration is encouraged but not required.

About the presenter: Jenny Mae Spadafora is a homeschool coach and educator with nearly 30 years of experience in education. As the founder of Wholehearted Homeschooling, she helps parents build homeschools rooted in encouragement, perspective, and community. She is also a homeschooling mom herself.
