The Advantages of Registering for Guardianship services (Boston Guardians)

To house high school students while they are on a cultural exchange program in New England, there is a huge host family and guardianship service requirement. You could come forward and register with us, and help many students across the world know what it is like to live an American life in New England. There would be a few requirements that you would have to abide by and myriad benefits you gain through the exercise. Read on for more details on how to become a host family and benefit from the activity.

Principle Requirements:

Since you would be hosting international high school students from almost every corner of the world, the principal requirements that you would have to fulfil would be:

- The presence of a family head aged at least 25 or above (preferably in mid 30s or 40s) to mentor the child.

- A married couple with at least one kid whom the international student could befriend and get to know.

- The space to accommodate one extra person - a proper bedroom, bathroom, dining room, kitchenette, and study.

- You must be able to provide healthy, nutritious, homemade food on a daily basis for all the three meals of the day, which would include breakfasts, lunches, and dinners. Snacks, fruits and coffee are also expected.

- An atmosphere that facilitates growth and learning at home.

- Moreover, you must get a Character Certificate from the local Sherriff's Office before you file your application.


The Advantages of Being a Host family:

Not only would the international high school student benefit from the sojourn at your house, but you too would have myriad advantages when you play host to an individual from across the globe. Here are few ways you can benefits hosting a student from abroad.

- If you are parents to an only child, having a high school student from abroad could be a great way to teach your own child how to share and live with a sibling.

- Through well-intended questions, you can gain a lot of cultural experiences about the life, culture, and social etiquettes in the country that the student comes from.

- Having an extra member in the house could be a fun way to have picnics and tour the city you live in. Come to think of it, how many times did you actually sightsee the Bunker Hill Monument in Boston? With a person to show around, you would have fun knowing more about the city you live in, too.

- Being a host family would make you appreciate the cultural exchange process and pave the way for your child to be sent abroad too.

There are many other advantages to being a part of the guardianship services. If you are really interested to volunteer, contact us and get started.
