Q: |
What is a Unit of Service? |
A: |
Each member performs a Unit of Service which becomes their part of the Benefits of Membership that HEED provides to its member families. As a volunteer organization it is imperative that each member do what he/she has signed up for. Each year as members renew HEED membership, they also choose their Unit of Service. The following have been popular options: plan a field trip; greet, set-up, or clean up at meetings; bring homemade treats to meetings; or help with the Resource Center or with a special event. There is a penalty fee for not completing a unit of service, unless you have been exempted by the Board.
There are other areas as well, and new ideas may be approved by the Board. |
Q: |
What is the Honorary Membership? |
A: |
The HEED leadership team has decided to grant honorary memberships(free dues and unit of service) to parents who have graduated all their children from home education. We value their experience, efforts, and expertise and look forward to their advice and wisdom as we walk this road called home education. |
