International Services is looking for warm and caring host families for international students attending schools within the Halifax Regional Centre for Education.
Hosting a student is an exciting adventure that enriches your family's life and brings a world of new ideas and experiences right to your doorstep. Host Families are supported by a Homestay Coordinator and financial assistance is provided during the student's stay ($775 tax free per month).
Host families are required for students who are in Grades 7 to 12.
