PAX - Program of Academic Exchange is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to increase mutual respect among the people of the world, to foster an appreciation of our differences and similarities, and to enhance our ability to communicate with one another. PAX believes that this mission is served by providing young people with the opportunity to study abroad and live with a host family for an extended period of time.

While PAX has a global vision, the organization works one student at a time. Committed to a quality program that is small and personal, PAX works exclusively with high school exchange. All PAX programs feature a homestay experience with a family abroad.

PAX has its headquarters in New York. The foundation works with community coordinators across the U.S. with 76 sending organizations around the world.

PAX provides comprehensive support to its community coordinators, online training and consistent oversight to help new members achieve their goals.

This is a volunteer position with opportunities for international travel and a small stipend to offset costs.
