Tampa Bay Homeschool Inclusive Events, Inc. is a non-profit organization committed to enriching and supporting Tampa Bay’s homeschooling community with safe and inclusive events that welcome all students, regardless of race, religion, ability, gender identity, or sexual orientation. It was created by a group of parents in search of milestone school events for homeschool students where they could celebrate their diversity. We provide a safe space for all homeschool students to participate as their authentic selves.

In March of 2021, a dozen parents frustrated by a lack of inclusive options envisioned a prom where students could celebrate their diversity and individuality without unnecessary restrictions on their style or identity and began making that dream a reality. Our first prom, held on April 30th, 2022 sold out easily and was a great success! As we were cleaning up after prom, we agreed to continue hosting not only prom, but expanding to include additional events. We have since organized as a Florida non-profit corporation and currently offer a fall middle school dance, a fall high school dance, a spring junior-senior prom, and an end of the school year senior graduation.
