Introducing She Leads by Faith. Building homeschool communities on Christ.

We are three homeschool moms and co-op leaders with over 30 years of experience between us in leading homeschool groups. We have weathered the storms of navigating community conflict, starting a non-profit, building a schedule, planning our curriculum, and then revamping and doing it all over again. We have learned many lessons along the way and want to help you have a smooth journey so you don't have to re-invent the wheel!
