The FRC is a unique organization based in Massachusetts, servicing New England homeschooling families by identifying and accessing creative and challenging museum and community resources that enrich children's lives and support their educational interests. We are not a support group.

The Family Resource Center was established in 1994. Tammy Rosenblatt of Salem, Ma. is the Founder and Director of the Family Resource Center. She and her husband homeschool their youngest child together while running the FRC. Their oldest child graduated in May 2006 and was accepted into the Global Studies program at Endicott College for fall 2006. She was entirely homeschooled since 1994, by her parents.

FRC charges a $60.00 per year family membership fee. Membership expires 12 months from date you join. We accept MC/Visa and checks.
