Become a Host Family! Did you participate in exchange as a young person? Do you have children of your own that you want to expose to cultures beyond America's borders? Do you live in a wonderful community that you'd like to share with a curious and enthusiastic teenager? Consider becoming a host family to an exchange student and you can bring the world right into your home, and your community! Host families are a special group of Americans who not only want to share the best of our country, but who also want to expand their own global understanding and that of their neighbors by getting to know young people from other countries. All that is required of a family to host is a safe and caring environment where the student has his or her own bed, a quiet place to study and a seat at the table at mealtime. One host parent must be at least 25 years old. Foundation for Foreign Study.
