Secular Homeschoolers of North Carolina [SHNC] was founded in July 2004 out of a need for a welcoming group for homeschooling families in and around Johnston and Wake Counties inclusive of all ethnicities, faiths, ages, lifestyles and homeschooling styles.

The purpose of the group is to provide social and educational opportunities for a variety of ages since homeschooling involves the entire family. Our on-line goal is to provide an open forum to discuss any subject pertinent to homeschooling with tolerance, dignity and respect. Our off-line goal is to gather and build a community that will support us throughout our homeschooling experience.

It is our hope that everyone will contribute and host activities to make this group self-sufficient. Our calendar reflects the diversity of our group. Our members typically organize events such as museum trips, theater trips, playdates, seasonal gatherings, park days, family picnics, classes, etc.

This is your community: use it!
