KC-MCHS is a group for Kansas City area families who home school children of color. We believe it's important that our children be connected to other children and adults who reflect their racial and cultural diversity. Through this discussion group, we hope to support each other in our homeschooling journey and also schedule playgroups, field trips, and parent meetings. All members are welcome, even encouraged, to organize activities that interest them.

We are a diverse community representing a wide range of home schooling styles as well as religious, political, and philosophical beliefs. Therefore, tolerance and respect for each other's opinions and beliefs is expected. This is not a religiously based group.

Discussion topics for KC-MCHS might include, but are not limited to, resources that reflect our families' culture and history and where to find them, ways to advocate for our children, cultural activities in and around KC, etc.

KC-Multi Cultural Homeschoolers was founded in 2005 by homeschooling moms Andrea and Cassandra.

Membership is open to Missouri and Kansas families that home school a minority child whether by birth, adoption, foster care, guardianship, or other. Membership requires moderator approval, and a list of questions must be answered regardless of what you write in the box provided by Yahoo. If you do not receive an email with questions for moderator approval, please email KC-MCHS-owner@yahoogroups.com.
