Volunteer Host Family:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Remember your time in Japan or as a study abroad student where you were welcomed by super amazing host families? \u00a0Do you miss sharing your culture and learning about new ones??<\/p>\n

Single parents, retirees, “empty nesters,” young couples with small children, as well as more traditional two parent families with teenagers\/pets, all are currently sharing and enjoying the exchange experience!<\/p>\n

If you are interested in hosting a student or know of someone who is interested, please email us at ayp@laurasian.org<\/strong><\/p>\n

We are looking for host families in all states throughout the US!<\/p>\n

Students’ arrival date: August 13th 2011<\/p>\n

End of the program: June 2012 (when host school’s term is over)<\/p>\n

Host Families are important members of the U.S. Department of State\u2019s citizen diplomats. If you are interested in being part of this program and the larger picture of supporting public diplomacy, please contact us! Feel free to ask us any questions. We are looking forward to hearing from you soon!<\/p>\n
