Thank you to the Brookins family (and all our families!) for hosting a delegate this summer. We are already making plans for next year’s summer programming. Stay tuned.

We are excited to share some of the news stories posted across the nation highlighting the In-US homestay experience. Today we feature a news report in FL about the Brookins family who hosted Hana.

"Hana has returned to Japan now. We will miss her so much, but we have had a wonderful time showing her all around Monticello, Jefferson county, and other parts of North Florida. Join us next year in making an international connection through States' 4-H International Exchange Programs."
