RONAN — Council for Educational Travel, USA (CETUSA) is seeking host families in the Ronan area to open doors to their homes to exchange students from Europe, South America, and Asia who are being placed in volunteer host families for a semester or an academic year. 

CETUSA exchange students carry their own health insurance and bring their own spending money. CETUSA coordinator Kathy Orr makes the arrangements for their high school acceptance and will provide ongoing support to the students and the families throughout their program. The students hope to be treated as one of the household and want to live the life “of a typical American teenager”. The host families are asked to provide a bed in either a shared or private bedroom, a place for the student to study, three meals a day, and a welcoming home environment. 

Begin the journey by emailing Kathy at mskathyorr@yahoo.com or highschool@cetusa.org, calling 888-238-8721, or by visiting our website http://www.cetusa.org. CETUSA works with families with children, couples, empty nesters, or single households.
