Kentucky Email Lists, Support Groups, Message Boards, Forums and Newsletters (A - G)
- 3riversnetwork (Three Rivers Homeschool Network) - The Three Rivers Homeschool list functions to connect homeschooling families and their support groups in western Kentucky, southern Illinois, and northwest Tennessee. Its purpose is to keep families aware of the opportunities for support and enrichment available within a roughly 60 mile radius of Paducah, KY. This is a mailing list, not an organization, but we welcome posts from local homeschool organizations. Meeting announcements, field trip and activity opportunities, workshops and conferences, and homeschool related for-sale items will be welcome. While we welcome families of all faiths to participate, please be aware that the overwhelming majority of members of this list are Christian and the subject matter of many posts will reflect a conservative, pro-family, pro-life point of view. If this is offensive to you, please do not subscribe.

- Cincinnati_Home_Schoolers (Greater Cincinnati Home Schoolers) - This site is for Home Schoolers and those interested in learning in general. There does not tend to be much discussion but it is welcome if desired. You are encouraged to post information of interest to you as you homeschool/learn with your family. I post what is of interest to me as I do the same.
There is but one rule here - you must be respectful. This list is not affiliated with any particular religion (or lack thereof) or with any particular home schooling method or group. You may, therefore, encounter people whose beliefs are at odds with your own. Please take from this list what interests you and express your disagreement/disinterest by hitting "delete".

- freerangehomeschoolers (Free Range Homeschool Group) - This group is open to all individuals interested in homeschooling. The organizers are located near Louisville, Kentucky, so many group activities will be focused on that area (but are not limited to just Jefferson County). The premise of this group is community, compassion and support. No one is excluded because of schooling style, belief system, family style or age. All ages are welcome and encouraged, as we feel children learn from everyone, not just from their age group. The moderators/organizers follow an attachment parenting sytle, but you do not have to be an AP parent to join. The key here is that *all persons* are welcome. When you join, you will receive a survey, but this is only to help us help you. We would like to see this group become a place for understanding each other and fostering peace, community and collaboration between all homeschooling families (regardless of schooling style, faith system and so on). Our goal is to help support you in your path, no matter what it may be. Peace, Free Range Homeschoolers Moderators
