Legal Advice About Homeschooling


The presence of the names and organizations below does not imply any endorsement on the part of CHN. We urge consumers to fully explore the complete philosophy of any organization before paying to become a member.


National Home Education Legal Defense (NHELD)

Attorney Deborah G. Stevenson became involved in legal work as a result of homeschooling her children in Connecticut; she became involved in protecting her right to homeschool as a parent even before she began attending law school. She currently practices Education law and Appellate law privately in addition to working as Executive Director of NHELD, LLC.

Although NHELD offers information regarding federal education laws, Stevenson herself is Connecticut's most prominent legal advocate for homeschoolers.

Home School Legal Defense Association (HSLDA)

"A nonprofit advocacy organization established to defend and advance the constitutional right of parents to direct the education of their children and to protect family freedoms." It is a Christian organization, "however, HSLDA’s mission is to protect the freedom of all homeschoolers. Although our officers and directors are Christians, HSLDA membership is not limited to religiously based homeschoolers."
