Homestay parents are making a difference in the lives of international students. Through their roles as hosts, they contribute to the cultural and economic growth of our province. Each year over 800 students from more than 25 countries, between the ages of 12 and 18, apply for stays that vary in length from several weeks to a full school year. They come to study, improve their English, learn about Canadian culture, and develop friendships to last a life-time while living with New Brunswick families.

Whether married, single, with or without children, retired, or empty-nesters, our host families all have one thing in common: they welcome the student not as a guest, but as part of their family.
