International Education Student Educational Student Exchange Program (Inter-Ed), a non-profit high school exchange organization, is currently looking for volunteer Host Families to host international students participating in our high school cultural exchange program.

Inter-Ed is the leading not-for-profit sponsor of J-1 exchange students and has been working with volunteer host families for international students for over 20 years. Inter-Ed places students from many different countries for semester-long and year-long academic programs. Inter-Ed also has Welcome Families that agree to take students on a temporary basis for a period of one to two months until a permanent family is found.

Students who participate in the Inter-Ed program have their own spending money, are fully insured, and attend your local high schools in order to learn more about the American culture, make friends, participate in sports, student activities in the local community, and most of all, become a lasting member of your family and community.

Anyone interested in hosting or for more information, contact International Education Student Exchange Program (Inter-Ed) by calling 209-661-4069, 208-350-4480, or toll free 888-282-8269. You may also e-mail arielpdog1@comcast.net or visit the website, www.intered.org for more information.
