Since 1982, hundreds of Tennessee 4-H families have experienced the excitement and joy of hosting a Japanese young person or adult in their homes. Host families come from both rural and urban areas and from a wide diversity of backgrounds.
Host families are responsible for providing lodging, meals and family activities.
The exchangees bring spending money and are covered by insurance. This is not a tourist program, but an opportunity for host families to share their everyday lives. Please share this information with the 4-H families in your county. Families who wish to host are encouraged to submit an application by April 15.
