Background
International exchange programs allow families to experience culture right at home with the advantage of sharing their own culture with kids from all over the world. As the host family to one of these foreign exchange students, the experience you will gain will be life-changing. After hosting an international student at home, many families claim to maintain their relationship with the international student for years, referring to them as their child.
Furthermore, for those looking for an international experience for their child, many of these programs also offer exchange programs for American students. The experience of spending time abroad completely immersed in a different culture will broaden your child's global perspective. Many programs for students from the US traveling for international exchange will have many amenities available to them and their host families would have been prescreened, so you can feel safe letting your child going on a wonderful cultural adventure.
