    Description

    There are many ways you can volunteer in the AFS community. Do you speak another language? Would you like to work with an exchange student that is in the US for a semester or year program?

    Volunteer directly with hosted students and families. The AFS Liaison is a volunteer identified as the primary contact for an AFS participant for the duration of their program. Liaisons provide ongoing support for AFS students and their host families and as such, are key to the AFS support network. The Liaison serves as the "first responder" in the communication network connecting with the local AFS volunteer leadership and staff as needed to provide participant support.

    We are also always looking for host families. If you would be open to welcoming a student into your home while they attend your local high school, please let us know.
