Inspiration, Motivation, Resources + Support
Discover Culture + Community you love in Education Your Child Deserves.
Homeschooling the Hood is a Nationwide Homeschooling Resource Center and Community.
We are comprised of families, friends, community leaders and neighbors nationwide who are homeschool committed as well as homeschool curious.
Through our STREAMtacular initiative, we serve our growing community as a STEM Edventure (Education + Adventure) Resource center focused on People of the Global Majority raising children while working to identify & share:
Enriching+ Engaging
Free + Affordable
Culturally Diverse + Inclusive
Resources, Frameworks, Philosophies and Curriculum that propels our children into a confident and healthy future while sustaining them beyond 12 years in the classroom.
“If You need us to hold your hand, just say that. We got you.”
Our goal is to severely disrupt the “broken” Eurocentric, industrialized and outdated system of education as well as deconstruct the fallacies surrounding intelligence and genius in the Black and Brown community by creating awareness of effective homeschooling/unschooling practice for parents and educators.
Sounds like a lot of work? It is.
We hold space for our community of learners by centering humanity first.
Driven by the belief that every child deserves the tools to succeed, we champion personalized learning, interactive curricula, and a thriving community where students and families alike can grow, innovate, and thrive. Together, we are breaking down barriers, building brighter futures, and creating a movement that nurtures lifelong learners, dreamers, and leaders of tomorrow.
We are more than a resource center—we are a force for change, rooted in love, unity, and empowerment.

Million children are currently being homeschooled in the us
Homeschooling is now more diverse than it has ever been, unfortunately there is not much representation of that diversity in the media or overall homeschool community because we are everywhere. At HSTH we connect families from the diaspora to other People of the Global Majority who are educators, mentors and experienced experts who are working tirelessly to deliver value to our independent education experience. We are also dedicated to working with special needs learners and learners with disabilities.

children converted to full time homeschoolers
In the last 5 years we have physically and virtually held the hand of a sizeable portion of our members while they took the leap of faith to homeschool full time.
We are happy to report not one of our families have chosen to return to traditional methods of education since they signed their Letter of Intent.
Our Non Negotiables
Science tells us that in order to compete in the future job markets there are roughly 7 skills our children need to grow in order to survive the changing world.

Get Involved
Since Covid 19, HTH has seen a nationwide jump in numbers of families and eductaors who are looking for organizations like ours to shine a light for them in the uncertain and unorganized madness most are experiencing.
While we have been actively spreading awareness, organizing field trips and advocating for family education and homeschooling for years, we have never been this sought after by our community.
Due to the time, energy, research and effort it takes to listen and assist each individual family/situation we are actively accepting volunteers, donations and affiliate partnership collaborations to expand our network and better serve our community.
