Homeschooling Family to Family Announces One Year
Anniversary Houston, Texas – October 6, 2006—One year after launching Homeschooling Family to Family (HFTF), a nationwide outreach of Frontline Ministries, homeschoolers around the country are actively discussing ways to reach out to encourage their friends and neighbors to homeschool. HFTF has exceeded its one year goals and has begun working toward its three year goals. Jube Dankworth, the National Director of HFTF, is delighted with the progress that has been made: “We knew there was a need for this outreach, but we did not expect the overwhelming response we received at the conferences. We met many people who had not only recently introduced friends and relatives to homeschooling, but who had also brought those friends and relatives to the conferences. One woman was so glad to have support in her outreach efforts that she told me she wished there had been a newsletter and support available when she was bringing new families into homeschooling many years ago.” The Rest of this Press Release ************************************************************************ Local Conference
