If you are not a member or Vela - here is a chance to apply. The application to join the VELA Founder Network is open at www.vela.org/apply! We are looking for founders enabling families to pursue alternatives to conventional schooling as their primary learning experience. Help us spread the word – especially to founders in Colorado, Michigan, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Utah, and Wyoming, where work is underway to expand local networks.

This group is amazing! We have such a great group of educators, thought leaders, and edupreneurs gathering here! I'd love for you to introduce yourselves and share why you decided to join this community. This group is for you, knowing why you are here will help me to create the best experience possible. Help me help you! I'm so excited to have you all in one place and excited to see what we can be, what we can build, how we can grow, and how we can make a difference in education - together!
