Who is AFS? AFS Interculture Canada is an international, voluntary, non-profit organization that provides intercultural learning opportunities to help people develop the knowledge, skills and understanding needed to create a more just and peaceful world. AFS Interculture Canada is a member of the AFS International network with ties in up to 60 countries. More than 13,000 young people a year live the AFS experience – a total of 400,000 participants since 1947. The network boasts more than 42,000 active volunteers. AFS is recognized by the UNESCO to be of public interest.
The regular Community Service Program provides you with the opportunity to work in a community organization, with accommodations either in a host family or at the work site. You will also have the opportunity to participate in local activities giving you the chance to learn more about the cultural and socio-economic realities of your host country. The programs lengths vary between 4 weeks to 11 months! Flex Program: Similar to the regular Community Service Program, it offers greater flexibility. It lasts as long as you want (minimum 4 weeks according to your destination), and allows you to travel on your own when your program is completed.
