What We Do

We are a reciprocal exchange organization where students dedicate their time to both hosting and going abroad. A reciprocal exchange is about being supported in a full immersion environment. This is different than many international student programs where students live in a dorm with other foreigners or where students participate in one-way stays where host families are paid money.  In a reciprocal exchange both families are invested in the exchange and share the responsibility of co-parenting, creating lifelong bonds.
