Cincinnati Secular Homeschool Connection
This group is for homeschooling families in the Northern Cincinnati and Southern Dayton areas such as Trenton, Middletown, Fairfield, Liberty Township, Hamilton and many other surrounding cities. This also includes Hamilton, Butler, and Franklin counties in Ohio. I am a homeschooling mom of four children. I have created this group to find others like me who are homeschooling for reasons other than religion. We can support each other, share ideas and plan meet ups for those who would like to get together. Parents of special needs children are welcome and encouraged to join.

Reaching Educators And Children at Home (REACH)
REACH stands for "Reaching Educators And Children at Home." We want to reach out to you in loving and practical support of your home schooling. We hope you will reach out to one another in friendship, encouragement and creativity. Our meetings are held in Loveland and serve families all over the east side of Cincinnati. Because the leaders of REACH are Christian, we believe our loving God wants us to serve everyone, not just Christians. Patrick Henry said, "It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded, not by religionists, but by Christians; not on religions, but on the gospel of Jesus Christ! For this very reason peoples of other faiths have been afforded asylum, prosperity, and freedom of worship here." The REACH support group is founded on the same principle as our nation. All are welcome.
