Bring the world home by hosting a student from another country!
Youth for Understanding is a non-profit, volunteer-based organization which has been placing students in local communities for over 60 years. YFU is currently looking for some families to welcome exchange students for the 2013-14 school year into their home.
Families provide a place to live, meals, common-sense parenting, love, and support. The students bring their own spending money and have good health insurance. Each of these kids is looking for a family living experience, something that helps them understand what it is like to be a teenager in America. They come ready to live as a family member and share family chores and responsibilities.

Call Kathi Moran at 248-681-7650 (Kmoran@yfu.org) to ask for more details on the available kids. All kinds of families host from all ethnic and educational backgrounds, with and without children at home. Elementary and middle school host siblings are often the ones who benefit the most from learning about the culture of your exchange student.
