					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Alyssa Sonnenburg</em></p>
<p>In this special episode of Illinois Family Spotlight podcast, <strong>Dave Smith</strong> sits down with IFI&#8217;s Senior Counsel, <strong>James Odom</strong>, to discuss the legal implications of the Homeschool Registration Act (<a href="https://www.ilga.gov/legislation/billstatus.asp?DocNum=2827&#38;GAID=18&#38;GA=104&#38;DocTypeID=HB&#38;LegID=160905&#38;SessionID=114" target="_blank" rel="noopener">HB 2827</a>).</p>
<p>Their conversation focuses on Illinois State Rep. <strong>Terra Costa Howard&#8217;s</strong> claim that HB 2827 is intended to protect children through forcing homeschooling families register with their local regional office of education.</p>
<p>Smith notes that homeschooling families are thriving socially, academically, and spiritually far above their peers in the public school system.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2025/04/spotlight-hb-2827-from-the-perspective-of-a-lawyer/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>
