The Boys & Girls Club is teaming up with CCI Greenheart an organization with over 20 years of exchange experience.

Our families are of varied economic, religious and racial backgrounds and include: Working parents Empty-nesters Couples without children Single parents and singles What would be expected of me and my family? The health and safety of each student is our highest priority and so we ask our host families to abide by regulations of the U.S. Department of State and policies outlined by CCI and the Council on Standards for International Educational Travel (CSIET), as well as, provide: Open communication, encouragement, patience and sound advice A separate bed, which can be in a shared room Three daily meals Local transportation (Students will have a bus pass). Treatment as a member of the family
    Host families are also eligible to receive a modest tax deduction for hosting.
