Hi Highland Parkers...I am posting this for a friend...
Forwarded conversation Subject: help with AFS student ------------------------
"Become a global family by hosting an AFS exchange student this school year. Families are accepted year-round and there is always an opportunity to be involved!
Local AFS Volunteers will support you and your hosted student throughout your experience to help you both receive the most from your time together. You provide a bed and meals for your student, but most importantly, you should be eager and excited to share your life and activities while providing the same kind of care, support, and comfort as you would to your own child or family members. AFS welcomes all kinds of families.
Students study in high schools and are eager to experience what it's like to live in America. Sharing daily life with a teenager from another country and culture is a rich and rewarding experience and is a wonderful way for you and your family to build a more just and peaceful world.
Start the process at http://www.afsusa.org/host-family/apply/ or call 1-800-876-2377 ext.124 or email sdilworth@afs.org for more information."
Thank you so much for your help. Please let me know if you need any more information from me.
Thanks, Sarah
