AFS Interculture Canada - Hosting Programs for Canadian Families

(This program is not funded by Exchanges Canada.)

Offer your family a unique learning opportunity and develop long-term bonds with students from all over the world! Hosting is an unforgettable experience for the whole family that allows you to discover the culture and history of another country.

Students are between 15 and 18 years old and come from more than 30 countries around the world. They attend a local high school and will live with you as a member of your family!

Timeframes vary, but most families host for a period of 11 months, from August to July. In certain regions Summer Programs are also run, where it is possible to host for a period of 4 weeks.
