Lynn - Coordinator for Ontario I am a wife, a mother of 2 boys in their late 20's and one girl in her early 20's and caretaker/mommy to a 2 year old cat and live in Scarborough, Toronto. I homeschooled my daughter during her teen years after many struggles in finding schools that offered programs that would fit her needs, including Art/Dance, Alternative/Gifted, Public, Catholic. Through the experiences we had and through my connections with other homeschooling parents I firmly believe that homeschooling is a great option, one that would suit many a parent some of whom are not aware that this is a choice for them. I currently share information about what is available to homeschoolers in my neighbourhood including where they can connect, find services and get support. I am eager to share information on what is relevant in Ontario. I hope to continue to reach more homeschoolers especially those who are just taking steps out or considering the Homeschooling path. I would like to encourage more homeschoolers to develop and become involved in clubs, competitions and volunteer groups. I would like to see more advocacy work that will improve the opportunities for homeschoolers. Please C'mon in and help me bridge services to homeschoolers in Ontario and share your knowledge and ideas. Lynn
