The Alaska Women's Environmental Network has made the Ambassador Program, which encourages these visits. Rural women can sign up to host urban women in their communities. Urban women learn how rural women environmentalists do their work in isolated communities and better understand the challenges their rural sisters face. During a visit, visitors are prepared to assist their hosts with their work or family. In return, hosts act as a cultural guides to their guest.
Guests are responsible for their own travel, food and lodging expenses.
