WHO WE ARE... 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. We are able to offer a variety of group programs to meet your needs: Junior Camps (customized to your requests), ESL Summer Camp, School Immersion, In - Home immersion, Golf programs and Teacher training programs. AHLI also offers F-1 visa study programs for students in over 120 private and public schools, including middle school, high school, community college, and English language schools. WHAT WE OFFER...
