Friendship Family Program

Whether you are a local family or an international student seeking to be paired with a family, this program helps build a bridge to mutual understanding by providing enriching cross-cultural engagement.

As international students, this is a fabulous way to better understand and adjust to life in the United States and get more involved with the local 莫斯科 community.

As local Friendship Families, this is a fantastic way to better understand our world and offer hospitality to those who are far away from their home countries.
