We are in need of volunteer host families this Summer! Make a difference and invite culture into your home!
We have 100 international high school students coming to Sonoma County in just under 6 weeks and need homes to place them in!
Educational Homestay Programs, a non-profit organization, invites all interested Petaluma residents, to become “Citizen Diplomats” and host an international high school student from June 25 to July 21.

School-bus transportation to and from Petaluma and Sonoma Academy will be provided.
In the afternoons, students are led on various fun, cultural activities to familiarize them with the beauty and culture of our surrounding area. Host families are invited to join us in these activities!
Open your home and heart with a place at the table and an available bed. Students speak English, come fully insured, and bring their own spending money. Students do not need their own room.
EF can provide a temporary bed for a host family that has the space, but is in need of an extra bed. EHP offers travel benefits for hosting.
Make a difference in a young person’s life and create memories for your family that will last a life time!
