Advocacy in Action An Interview with Kevin Boden

Protecting h omeschool freedom takes constant vigilance, strategic action, and strong relationships with lawmakers. In this episode of Homeschool Talks , HSLDA Attorney and Director of HSLDA International, Kevin Boden, joins HSLDA President Jim Mason to share how HSLDA ' s advocacy is making a difference. From opposing harmful bills to building trust in state legislatures to rallying constituents at the gra ssroot level , you ' ll discover why the work HSLDA is doing today (and the last 4 0+ years!) is essential to preserving hard - won freedoms while advancing homeschool liberty for generations to come. " I don't know where my kids will live when they're educating their own children. But what I do hope is that the freedom that they have is greater than the freedom I have now. And I personally have an opportunity potentially to shape the future of home education that my own kids may opera te in. And so , when I wake up in the morning and you're tired and you go, " okay, here's another day , a nother set of issues to deal with " — you realize that there's a whole generation of kids that will benefit from the work that we're doing. And so that's really, to me, I'll do this another day, I'll this another week, I will send out another alert, I'll make another phone call, I'll drive to another meeting. Because the freedom that I want to hand my kids — I hope — is greater than the one that was handed to m e. " — Kevin Boden
