What Others Are Saying About Youth Exchange…

I just think we can't do enough of this [student exchanges]… And when you get young children traveling internationally, I think they come back different people. And you can't put a price tag -- you can't put a value on that.

U.S. Secretary of Education, Arne Duncan

Simple exchanges can break down walls between us, for when people come together and speak to one another and share a common experience, then their common humanity is revealed.

President Barak Obama 

I want to see more exchanges. So the exchange programs should be accelerated, in my view, to include many more opportunities, and we’re going to do that.

U.S. Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton
