Host a Student
Host Family Requirements
Being a host family is a wonderful experience that enriches the lives of students and families throughout the world. By accepting foreign exchange students into your home, you are opening your heart and mind to a new culture. This will help to bridge the gap between two different countries.
Become a Host Family
Host families represent the diversity of host countries. They are of varied economic, religious and racial backgrounds and include working parents, couples without children, singles and single parents, adoptive parents, and empty nesters. You don’t need to have teenagers to host- you can host if you have young children or no children at all.
Requirements to be a Host Family
We ask host families to provide basic room and board.
Students may share a room with siblings of the same sex. A host family consists of many different forms. Single parents with children may host if they meet the Educareoz requirements. Your application to become a host family will be reviewed by local Educare representative.
Host families are assigned a supervising area representative to help you through the entire process from beginning to end. The supervising representative will be with you every step of the way providing extensive guidance and support during the student’s exchange program.
To have someone from Educare contact you about hosting, please mail us at exchangeprogram@educareoz.org
