An enriching experience for the whole family Established in 1985, the Center for Cultural Interchange (CCI) is a nonprofit international educational exchange organization based in Chicago, IL. We are currently looking for host families to place our international exchange students, that will be going to school for one or two semesters. 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, as well as, provide: • Open communication, encouragement, patience and sound advice • A separate bed, which can be in a shared room • A quiet place to study • Three daily meals • Local transportation (students are not permitted to drive while on • the program) • Treatment as a member of the family, which may include household rules, responsibilities and privileges.
Students are ages 15 to 181⁄2, arrive from more than 60 countries and • Speak English • Bring their own spending money • Have their own medical and accident insurance • Are active in music, sports, dance and more!
Thank you for your interest. Become a host family and create a relationship that will last a lifetime.
