Host families provide a bed, meals and a place to study. The families do not have to provide transportation or buy any personal items for the students. Occasionally, host families may be asked to volunteer as drivers for field trips, but participation is optional.

Roane State’s international students range in age from 18-22 and speak English, although skill levels vary.

A support system composed of college staff members and other host families will provide assistance. Host families receive a monthly stipend to help offset expenses.

In addition, Roane State is seeking mentor families. Mentor families do not house the students; instead, they mentor the students by providing encouragement and support.

For more information or to volunteer, contact Melissa Rahmanian at (865) 242-1189 or rahmanianml@roanestate.edu.
