When you choose to host a teen from Northern Ireland, the benefits for your whole family are immeasurable! Consider what one of our former host dads said after his daughter completed the program: "When we were first considering hosting, I thought you were overselling the project. After doing the project, I now believe it was completely undersold. There is just no way to adequately express how life-changing this experience is for the entire family."
While the teens will be kept busy all day, every day, the families also have opportunities to engage with the teens and the other host families. Many host parents remember this summer as a great family bonding experience!
