As the founder of the Torah Home Education Conference, it is an event close to my heart. I started this because there was so much support for homeschooling families, but nothing that addressed the unique needs of Orthodox Jewish families – and the Torah Home Education Conference was born! When we moved to Israel the organizing was taken over by very dedicated homeschooling moms who are continuing to bring fantastic and inspiring content to attendees!
The conference will be held on Sunday May 25, 2014, from 9 am – 6 pm in Englewood, NJ. There will be workshops on a wide variety of topics and there’s definitely something for everyone! For the first time since moving here I’ll be speaking at the conference via Skype on ‘Creating an Abundant Life’ – click here to check out the wonderful lineup and other details!
A catered meal is available, childcare is available, loads of homeschooling parents for you to meet and mingle with will be there, inspiration and information galore – so what are you waiting for?? Go sign up right now!! (The deadline for childcare is this Sunday, May 4, so if having this piece in place is important for you to be able to attend, get on it!:) )

We hope to have livestreaming and recordings made. If you are interested because you cannot come to the conference, please email torahhomeed@gmail.com .
I just signed up! I’m so excited it’s in my area (Northern NJ), so it’s much easier to go than when it’s in Baltimore. I’m not homeschooling at this time but do think about it a lot and want to learn more and network. I do “Mommy Camp”, which is perhaps something like homeschooling. And even during the school year, I try to to educate my children when they are at home and am sure I could learn much from the conference. Thanks for starting it!
The Torah Home Education Conference is happening Sunday, May 29 in Baltimore MD. There will be speakers on various topics, vendors of educational materials, ample time to socialize, and a free Mom’s Night Out after the conference is over.
