Say YES! And open your home to an exchange student.

We’ve partnered with Academic Year in America (AYA) to share its “Youth Exchange and Study” (YES) program with our community. Federally sponsored, YES, places exchange students from countries with significant Muslim populations, including many countries in Africa, in U.S. households to share cultures and learn from one another. ⁠
⁠
How cool would it be for you and your family to host a student from South Africa, Tanzania, Sierra Leone, Senegal, or another African country? YES is seeking to place students from the continent of Africa with supportive families throughout our community to attend local high schools! Learn first-hand about another country and culture, while creating bonds that last a lifetime. ⁠
