Beginning in 2026, AFS-USA is proud to offer enhanced consulting services for schools to the benefit of educators and students.
For nearly 80 years, AFS-USA has helped people connect across differences, building understanding through shared experience. Born from a belief that people-to-people connections can shape a more peaceful world, AFS has long created opportunities for individuals and communities to learn from one another - across borders, cultures, and perspectives.
Today, AFS-USA is advancing that mission here in the United States, fostering positive communication and learning rooted in communities across the country.
AFS-USA draws from our many years of using experiential and intercultural learning to counsel students, schools, and host families in communicating positively and learning to understand one another. We offer tailored solutions for educator, student, and professional audiences.
Our unique approach to strengthening cultural agility is rooted in face-to-face workshops and trainings that deliver:
- Curated interactive and hands-on activities to meet the needs of each audience;
- Tools and techniques to encourage intercultural and interpersonal growth;
- Effective facilitation of dialogue to build and support communication across differences;
- An understanding of how to apply power skills as one navigates everyday interactions or challenges.
