IVLP PROGRAM UPDATE 

In the past year WACNH has worked to navigate the challenges of the pandemic by working with the Office of International visitors at the State Department and Global Ties. During this time we have rapidly and successfully started implementing IVLP Virtual Exchanges. While this will never replace in-person programming it is proving to be a valuable tool for future programming.

With many recent advances in vaccines the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs of the U.S. Department of State has set a potential date of October 1^st for in-person programming to resume.

Please note, the safety of US citizens as well as our international visitors is a top priority. Additional updates will be provided once more information is received.
