Will Estrada
A homeschool graduate from Pennsylvania and the eldest of eight children, Will began working for Home School Legal Defense Association in 2004 as a legal assistant to staff attorney Scott Woodruff. After graduating from Oak Brook College of Law with his JD, he moved to HSLDA’s Federal Relations department to serve as HSLDA’s federal lobbyist.
As HSLDA’s representative on Capitol Hill, Will uses his passion for homeschooling to advocate for all homeschoolers before Congress and the federal departments. In October, 2007, Will took over as the director of Generation Joshua, a division of HSLDA, where he works with young people who are passionate about making a difference in politics, in addition to continuing to serve as HSLDA’s federal lobbyist.
Will and his wife, Rachel—also a homeschool graduate as well as an accomplished portrait artist—reside in northern Virginia.
