How to join HAPI

I just got an e-mail about joining HAPI from my Catholic homeschool yahoo group and thought it would be good to share here. I just edited the e-mail address in the latter part to indicate my own :-) I am already a member of HAPI, along with my husband and 2 kids. :-) So excited for how HAPI can help more homeschoolers like us! ;-)
