Other Area Homeschool Groups
Please note: These groups are not affiliated with ECCHO. We share this information because, as homeschoolers, we root for each other and want others to know there is a wide variety of homeschool support available to them. This list is not complete, there are more out there!  It is up to the discretion of your family to vet the groups however you choose, as not all of these groups hold the same values or belief system as ECCHO.
