About States' 4-H International Exchange Programs

In the fall of 1971, 4-H State Leaders Dwight Palmer (WA) and Maurice Johnson (ID) were approached with an opportunity to implement a youth exchange program between 4-H youth and young people from Japan.

That year, 179 delegates from the Labo Foundation in Japan came to stay with volunteer host families in Washington and Idaho.

States' 4-H International Exchange Programs is a non-profit organization headquartered in Bellevue, WA.

We work with 4-H Youth Development Centers of Cooperative Extension in the US and a network of international partners around the world to conduct cultural immersion and exchange programs.

Since 1972, our exchanges have impacted over 64,000 youth and their families in 43 countries on 6 continents

As one of the pioneers of international youth exchange, we continue to empower today's youth to be future global leaders equipped with respect, mutual understanding and the global perspectives and cross-cultural competencies needed to address global issues.
