OUR PROGRAMS
Rotary Youth Exchange is a worldwide program designed for youth between the ages of fifteen and eighteen. Our programs aim to develop global citizens who understand the value of cultural diversity and are committed to making a positive impact on the world. Rotary Youth Exchange empowers young people to become responsible and compassionate leaders in their communities.
Long Term Exchange
Long-term exchanges last a full academic year, and students attend local schools and live with multiple host families. A full immersion into another language and culture! Applications are closed for the 2025-26 academic year but start planning now for 2026-27!
Short Term Exchange (STEP)
Short-term exchanges range from 3-6 weeks, usually during the summer, and are a family to family exchange. Exchange students will stay together in each other's homes during the exchange. Application deadline for summer 2025: February 25, 2025
Be a Host Family
Hosting an exchange student provides families with a unique opportunity to share their culture, traditions, and values while learning about another culture firsthand. We are currently seeking applicants for 2025-26.
