Host Families play such an integral role in the International Student’s well-being and adjustment while they are attending school in the United States. JR Education would like to ask you to invite a new member in your home to provide a safe and nurturing environment, to offer the student guidance, support, and encouragement to the International Student adapting to life in America.
