We have an urgent need for host families to accommodate university students from Japan. Since 1995, we’ve helped tens of thousands of international students find homes away from home with local families in Canada including right here in Kingston.   When we welcome international students into our schools, our education programs benefit, our community benefits, and local students are offered life-changing experiences that positively shape their worldviews.  Hosts across our network agree that homestay has changed their lives through life-long friendships and lasting connections throughout the world. They enjoy sharing what our province and city have to offer, including our values and unique way of life.   As members of CHN, hosts get 24/7 emergency support, social and cultural integration training, and an allowance to help offset expenses.   Hosts provide the same support, guidance, and attention you would want for your loved ones travelling overseas, including a welcoming, caring, patient, and safe home environment. Additionally, hosts provide their students:   

• Three nutritious meals per day  
• A private bedroom with storage and study space  
• Utilities including laundry and Internet
