By getting involved as a EurAupair Volunteer Community Counselor, you will be making a difference in the world - one young person at a time. As a EurAupair Community Counselor, you'll be that all-important point person for au pairs placed in your area during their year abroad, and for the host families in your area during their program year. Counselor, advocate and friend are just some of the roles you will play as you oversee the EurAupair program in your area and help the au pairs and host families get the most out of their year together.
