Host a high school or college student from Japan for 1-4 weeks this summer! Hosting an international student is a great way to learn about a new culture, establish global friendships, and introduce young people to the great wide world. It is an impactful experience centered around international collaboration, solidarity, and education. The students are coming to share cultures, practice English, and become part of an American household. Students will have weekday English classes and activities at Portland State University or Pacific International Academy, commuting on public transit. (We also have long term college students enrolled at PSU, PIA, PCC campuses, Clark College, and Lewis and Clark College.) Students bring their own spending money and are covered by comprehensive medical and accident insurance. Families receive orientation materials, 24/7 support, and a small hosting stipend. ACES is a PNW nonprofit that has been connecting families and students since 1995. Learn more at acescollegehomstay.org, apply online, or contact us at aces.org@exploretheworld.org or 971-387-6388.
