About Us

The Catholic Family EXPO was originally founded 19 years ago as the National Association of Catholic Home Educators, but seven years ago we broadened our reach to include ALL Catholic families, regardless of their educational choices. The main focus of the numerous exhibits, break-out presentations, and general session topics is devoted to general Catholic formation and family issues, yet we have successfully maintained a home educator's track.

Our mission is three fold

To help the faithful cultivate or return to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
To instill in all Catholics a sense of social responsibility by serving their fellow man.
To assist parents in imparting the first two goals to their children.

Committee Leadership

The backbone of our organization consist of our many generous volunteers. Their common bond is a desire to seek and build the Church through the Catholic Family EXPO. Most have been profoundly impacted by their ongoing experience attending and then serving the annual conferences.
