SUMMARY:2025 Ushiku Exchange Program - Host Family Information Session
DESCRIPTION:The Sister City Exchange Program between Whitehorse and Ushiku\, Japan\, launched in the 1980s\, fosters mutual cultural understanding and strengthens leadership skills among youth. \nEvery other year\, Whitehorse host families invite an Ushiku exchange student into their home\, sharing Canadian and Yukon culture.
