The Home Educators Resource Directory, one of the most comprehensive online resources for home educators, was developed by Mindy Lively, a homeschooling mother. While searching for materials for her family she found that there was a need for an easy access directory. That is exactly what HERD has brought the homeschool community!
HERD is chock full of valuable information, and it’s easy to navigate and find the information and materials you need. Here are some of the valuable resources it provides:
