The Host Family

Host families are the key component to all of our programs. America is a "melting pot," and therefore, ours come from all walks of life.

Whether you are married, with or without children, a single parent family, a young couple or an old couple, the only ingredient one needs to be a host family is the willingness to open your heart and home to a young person from another part of the world. Our families all participate out of an eagerness to share their lives. They are volunteer families who choose to have a unique experience and have the opportunity to make friendships for life.
