STUDENT TESTIMONIAL
“AHLI provided me with a good opportunity to study
in America. I learned how to get along with teachers,
students and other people, so I made a lot of friends.
I started to think what my world is. I really thank AHLI
for these two years.” -International student

WHO WE ARE...
WHAT WE OFFER...
AHLI was founded in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, and was
established as a non-profit organization in 1991. It is our
mission to provide a safe, caring environment where
students can learn about American culture and complete
their educational goals. Our families live in the suburbs, in
the country, and some live on farms. Students will have
a unique experience wherever their families live. We offer
two housing options. Most of our students live with host
families who range from young or middle-aged couples to
families with and without children, but all of the families are
interested in hosting international students. High school
and college dormitories are another housing option in some
of our group locations.

STUDENT TESTIMONIAL
“I’m really glad that I have had this privilege to live with my host family.
By living with them, I experienced the traditional American holidays such as Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter - and I learned some new ways
to deal with things. I enjoy my life here in America, and I appreciate AHLI
to find an awesome host family for me.” - International student
