Preparatory and Reentry Workshops for International High School Students with Disabilities Studying in the U.S.
Programs take place in Eugene, Oregon, U.S.A. throughout the year.
YES Preparatory Program, October 9 - 15, 2011
FLEX/YES Re-entry Program, April 29 - May 2, 2012
MIUSA fosters successful experiences for high school students with disabilities from Eurasia and predominantly Muslim countries to study abroad at high schools throughout the U.S. Students learn how to address challenges related to accessibility and inclusion during their school year and also reflect on their disability-related experiences in the United States.
This program is made possible in partnership with:
- American Serbia and Montenegro Youth Leadership Exchange (A-SMYLE),
- Congress-Bundestag Youth Exchange (CBYX),
- Future Leaders Exchange (FLEX) and
- Youth Exchange and Study (YES) and is sponsored by
- The Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) of the U.S. Department of State.
