@@SeanChan852 Hello, where can I find a hosting family? I am an international student in USA

Some programs do 1 month and 3 months too :)

Hey there. I live in Fort Worth and am involved with Sister Cities (cultural exchange programs). My daughter went abroad last year and had a blast. Now its our turn to volunteer to hose. I'd love to but my biggest worry is them having enough fun. Before now, I have been a homebody. My own life is embarrassingly boring. My teen daughter complains that we never do anything and its true. So...What are some good ideas that are age appropriate and fun but also won't break the bank? I can only think of a few ideas: mall? zoo? museum? movies? I have no idea what other people think are fun(my daughter usually just hangs out over her friend's house). Sister Cities hosts adults and high school students. Chances are, we will be paired with a teenager/high schooler. Can you make a follow-up video talking about some of the outings you have shared with your international visitors. Please, and thank you.

What if you have a connection with a potential exchange student? I'm in a worldwide ministry and the father of one of our members would like his daughter to take advantage of the opportunity?

We call this a direct placement when an exchange student knows a family in the United States who is willing to host them. Our program helps connect the student to make sure they get all of the correct paperwork and their visa. I would be happy to answer any questions and help with this process. Please feel free to send me an email: lauren@iseusa.org

Our program does not allow families to host a family member but our program does have students from Mexico every once in a while.

Why does the parents of the host family need to be 25 years old to 80 years old?

@laurenerndteman9530

Host family parents need to be atleast 25 years old because it is a department of state rule so that they are not too close to the student age. As far as the 80 years old, this is just a recommendation, you can host after the age of 80 but need to be in good health in order to take care of a child.
