*Do you have patrons wanting to know more about homeschooling? *
The Oregon Home Education Network is the state's first and largest,
inclusive, nonprofit, volunteer-run organization, dedicated to the
support of all of Oregon's homeschooling families. OHEN offers the
following homeschool support services:
** Homeschooling in Oregon: *
A free presentation by a panel of 2-3 experienced homeschoolers. This
1.5 hour presentation consists of a general overview of homeschooling in
Oregon and an extensive question & answer period. A handout of
homeschooling resources will be given to all participants. We are
currently scheduling Homeschooling in Oregon sessions for the 2013-2014
school year.

We are in the process of adding libraries to our lists of local
homeschool resources: http://www.ohen.org/oregon/links.
If your library has special resources or ongoing programs for
homeschoolers, we would like to include that information as well.
Please let us know if there is anything that we can do to help you
better serve the homeschoolers in your community.
