Five ways to help build the resource.
Every directory on the site is community-fed. The convention calendar, the field-trip listings, and the co-ops directory all grow because families and program directors send submissions. No directory accepts paid placement.

What contribution does not mean
The directories are reader-built. They are not for sale.
Every Homeschool accepts no paid placement on any directory. The convention calendar does not run sponsored event slots. The field-trip directory does not promote destinations in exchange for affiliate fees. The co-ops directory does not rank communities for any consideration except editorial judgment about reader usefulness.
When a contribution arrives, the editor confirms the facts, checks the URL, decides whether the listing meets the bar for the relevant directory, and either publishes it or replies with a reason. The standard for publishing is reader usefulness, not the contributor’s relationship to the site.
