Portland (and surrounding areas) Families
NEEDED to Host Foreign Exchange Students
Foreign high school students
will be arriving into the local area
for homestay program s for the
1998/99 school year and Pacific
In tercu ltu ral E xchange (P IE )
NEEDS local volunteer host fami­
lies.
PIE is a non-profit educational
organization. The students are
all between the ages o f 15 and 18
years. They bring their own
spending money, have full m edi­
cal insurance and are anxious to
share their cultural experiences
with their new American fami­
lies. PIE’s academic homestays
range in length from one semester
to a full academic year, while the
students attend local high schools.
PIE representatives match stu­
dents with host families by find­
ing com m on in te re s ts and
lifestyles through and informal in-
home meetings. Prospective host
families are able to review stu­
dent applications and select the
“perfect match.” As there are no
“typical” host families, PIE can
fit single parent, a childless
couple, a retired couple, or a large
family.
For 1998/99, PIE has students
form Spain, Germany, Belgium,
Ghana, Mexico, Yugoslavia, Ar­
menia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan,
Poland, China, Japan, as well as
other countries. PIE has spon­
sored more than 13,000 students
form 18 countries since its found­
ing in 1975.
Families interested in learning
more about hosting, should call
Teresa Knapp at 1 -800-894-7633,
or the international headquarters
at 1-888-PIE-USA1.

Portland Community College and nine other community colleges across
the country, including Mt. Hood Community College in Gresham, are part of
a $4.9 million high-tech effort that pairs the col­
leges with Private Industry Councils, employers
and welfare recipients.
The 18-month project, which began July 1, will
place over 2,200 welfare recipients in five, high-
demand occupations where employers say they are
having a tough time recruiting and retaining work­
ers. In addition, people on welfare will improve
their long-term earning and learning potential.
“This is an exciting opportunity to partner with
employers in new ways by offering post-employ­
ment education and training at the worksite,” said
Non Poppe, dean of Adult and Continuing Educa­
FOOD & DRUG
tion at Portland Community College.
Targeted occupations include building mainte­
nance, customer service, home care worker, office
worker and security guard. The funds will be used
Look For Your
in part to give community college instructors a way
to monitor workers’ progress from a remote loca­
tion and to communicate electronically with the
trainees.
The project is sponsored by the American Asso­
ciation ofCommunity Colleges, the National Asso­

ciation of Private Industry Councils and Instruc­
tional System, Inc.
