Mentor FamiliesYour mentor family is an American family that will be an additional source of support for you during your stay.
During your first week on campus you will stay with your mentor family for several days.
They will invite you to attend family gatherings, cultural outings, and help you adjust to life in the United States.

Health Care in the United States
The United States does not have a government medical plan or health care service that covers the whole population. Instead, most people have private health insurance.
To help students with expenses while they are in the United States, the U.S. Department of State and CCID provide basic healthcare insurance.

Freedom, Democracy and Personal Responsibility (FDR)
CCI program goal: to give you a first-hand understanding of American society.
The goal of FDR programming is to introduce you to the values and beliefs of American society. The FDR program will be a little different at each college. Through coursework, group activities and field trips, and community service activities we hope that you will:
– Develop an understanding of democracy and government in the United States– Build leadership skills– Build a sense of personal empowerment and social responsibility.

Freedom, Democracy and Personal Responsibility (FDR)
FDR is a required element of your CCID program.
We expect that you will come prepared to take initiative, assume responsibility for your growth as leader and professional, and to actively participate in the opportunities offered.
Activities: movies; field trips to State Capitols, courts, museums, local attractions; volunteering in the community; joining student groups on campus; sharing information about your country in the local community; classes related to U.S. history and democracy.
Weekly Meeting: During these meetings you will participate in group discussions about FDR activities and experiences, listen to and interact with guest speakers from the community, and develop a portfolio that captures your academic and professional achievements as well as other experiences in the program.
