In an effort to increase educational exchange opportunities in the Western Hemisphere President Obama has launched a new website called 100,000 Strong in the Americas. The goal is to build strong relations with different countries through student exchange programs. On the website students will be able to browse various resources that will assist them in the decision making process. Information available range from finding the right program to information on host families and volunteering opportunities.
