Youth For Understanding (YFU) was begun to improve understanding between the United States and
Germany after World War II. In 1951, 75 German teenagers were selected to live with American families
for one year. In 1955, the first American teenagers were placed with European families. Since 1951, YFU
has exchanged approximately 200,000 students from more than 50 countries. In the mid-fifties, the program
expanded rapidly in Europe, Asia, and the Pacific. YFU was introduced to Latin America in 1958,

beginning with Mexico. Although YFU was founded in the United States, it is truly international. For
example, a Brazilian student can go to the United States or to any of 12 countries, including Denmark,
Australia, and France. Exchange students are placed with families in their host countries. Host

families are carefully selected so that the visit is a safe and rewarding experience. Exchange students attend
school where they make friends and learn what life is like for teenagers in the host country. If a different
language is spoken in the host country, students will need to meet minimum language requirements.Students
also must demonstrate that they are committed to the host family and are ready for cross-culture living.
