Contact & Host Family Application

Thank you for your interest in our program! After you submit this application, a staff member will review your information and get in touch.

Contact families meet with students socially throughout the 4-month academic term, typically once or twice per month. Contact families can choose to be matched with one or two students. Host families host one student in their home throughout the 4-month semester.
