The Future Leaders Exchange is a federal government program that provides opportunities for high school age students (ages 15-17) from Eurasia to spend a year in the United States, living with a family and attending a U.S. high school. American Councils’ placement organization works with local coordinators in communities across the United States and through those coordinators, finds appropriate family and school placements. Local coordinators lead a pre-arrival orientation with the host family, a post-arrival orientation with the student, and provide monthly reports on each student's behavior and adjustment.
