Both groups meet at least weekly and create an great environment to foster any homeschoolers style and provide support to all. Both are non-sectarian groups so that anyone is welcome.
The Palatine Public Library and the Arlington Heights Memorial Library both have homeschool meet-ups during the year. Call the libraries for more information. There is also a great program at AHML that offers the teen lounge to homeschoolers once a month (ages 12 and up).
