Results from HB 19-1312 Committee Hearing
Dear friends,
The House Health and Insurance Committee hearing for HB19-1312 (School Immunization Requirements) was held yesterday. Hopefully, you are aware that both CHEC and HSLDA strongly oppose this bill because it will impose significant and unreasonable burdens on all Colorado families. (You can learn more about the bill on our action page here.)

Dear Friends,
Happy New Year from our family to each of yours! God has been very kind and merciful to us in 2016, and I am excited about what He has in store for 2017. I don’t know what that will be, but I know it will be good since He has promised that “All things will work together for good to those who love him and are called according to his purpose” (Romans 8:28).
I pray that your family is entering the new year with this same confidence and optimism as well.
I would like to recommend a passage of scripture that, if adhered to as a guide for all of your 2017 goals, planning, and activities, will guarantee your homeschool will accomplish what is ultimately required of it in the coming year.Read More

We’ve definitely had our plates full this year, hosting 18 homeschool events and seminars around the state in addition to our annual Rocky Mountain Homeschool Conference. On top of that, we’ve fought for homeschool freedom at the Capitol, sent out 17,000 free Homeschool Update magazines, administered the largest umbrella independent school in Colorado, and answered phone calls from homeschoolers around Colorado five days every week.
Here are a few of this year’s highlights from my perspective—
Tribute to Treon Goossen
Friends,
Our dear friend, Treon Goossen, passed away last night (Monday, May 9th) at 8:20 pm. Treon has been a tremendous champion for homeschool freedom in Colorado for many years and so this is a significant loss to the homeschool community.
