Do you have experience with intercultural exchange programs, either as a student or host family? Do you want to use that experience to help others and make a difference in the world? Youth for Understanding (YFU) is looking for volunteers to help facilitate orientations for our students, parents, and host families.
YFU is one of the world's largest and most respected international exchange organizations. Our exchange programs include both American and international students in over 60 countries worldwide!
Facilitators will lead discussions and activities based on YFU USA's well-established curriculum for various participants including students, parents, and host families. YFU USA offers multiple types of orientations that take place throughout the year. These are designed to give participants the tools they need to have a healthy and successful exchange experience. As a facilitator, you are meant to guide participants, prompt discussion, and be a first-level resource.
