the CRHE. Of course, we're advocating for the Meckler School Safe Act. And a lot of that is influenced by a project
00:00:05
that we have called Homeschooling's Abused Children. This is a database of, frankly, the worst outcomes of of
00:00:11
homeschooling. Um, and the reality is we have over 500 cases documented there where homeschooled children um had
00:00:17
horrific outcomes. The reason we do that though is because you can you can find patterns and you

00:00:29
don't happen.
