Exchange Programs: Learn about Canada
YMCA YouthHave you ever thought about exploring other regions of Canada, living in another community, meeting new people, learning Canada’s other official language, or exploring Canada’s cultural diversity? If so, YMCA Youth Exchanges Canada may be for you!

This exciting exchange program is designed for groups of 10 to 30 participants between the ages of 12 and 17. After your organizer fills in information about your group, you’ll be twinned with kids from another province or territory who are the same age as you.

You take turns staying in each other’s homes for at least five days. If your group is involved in outdoor activities, you can even arrange to stay at each other’s camps.

If you’re interested in exploring the options, here’s what you need to know:
