Youth for Understanding, the largest high school student exchange program in the world, will place some 4,000 teenagers from 26 overseas countries with American families this August. “If you’ve ever wanted to expose your family to an experience in international living, we can help provide that adventure for you in your own home,” says Youth for Understanding President John Richardson, Jr., formerly Assistant Secretary of State from 1969 to 1977. The non-profit organization matches teenagers aged 14 through 18 from Europe, Latin America, Africa or Asia with compatible American families. They place students in local schools, orient families and students, provide insurance, and offer professional guidance from 20 regional offices. “The year my family hosted a young European girl was perhaps the most enriching adventure in international living that my family has ever experienced," Richardson explains. “As a family, we expanded our vision of the world, became intimately exposed to different cultures and countries, and developed a profound awareness of what it means to be Americans. “One of our jobs was to introduce our student to American life. We were delighted to discover that

she wanted to expose us as well to her European culture and way of life. “Hosting was a meaningful adventure that the Richardson family highly recommends to any family, large or small, with teenagers or without, with an interest in developing a deeper understanding of international concerns." Students and their host families receive support from nearly 1,000 volunteers in communities across the country. Families provide room and board; students, who come prepared with English language skills, handle their personal expenses.
