“He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?” Micah 6:8
Cindy La Joy is an adoptive mom of five internationally adopted kids who are now all young adults. Along her adoptive parent journey, Cindy discovered her children had special needs which included dysgraphia, dyscalculia, auditory processing, FASD, information processing, executive function disorder, and giftedness. She realized early on that homeschooling would be the best fit for her family.
Cindy combined the wisdom and experience she gained along the way and created Blue Collar Homeschool as a resource for homeschooling families. Foster and adoptive parents are often frustrated by traditional curriculum and educational methods that just don’t work with struggling learners. The Blue Collar Homeschool website and Facebook group is a valued resource for these families.
This week, host Sandra Flach, talks with Cindy La Joy on our Orphans No More podcast. Listen in as they discuss adoption, homeschooling, and FASD.
