How do I apply to be a Host Family?
I think I would like to host ... but can I talk to you to find out more?
If you would like to find out more and have a chat to one of the organisers, please fill out the
contact form HERE.
The Host Family Co-ordinator will then be in contact with you by telephone and/or email to supply more information, have a chat about the program.
The process continues with completion of application forms. You can download the forms below, or if for some reason you are not able to access the forms online we can organise to send you an application package. The application also should be accompanied by a recent family photo.
I know I want to apply to be a host family - what do I do now?
If feel you are ready to apply now please submit the Contact form first (please mention you have downloaded the application forms) and then application documents can be found HERE.
A representative will still make contact by phone or email. Please remember to include a recent family photo.
Extra documentation for Child safety reasons:
It is also necessary for one Reference to be supplied. The Referee form is part of the Host Family Application form.
The Sister City Association also requires every adult member of the host family residing at the host home to complete a Working With Children Check. More information about the WWCC can be found HERE. The WWCC for volunteers is free.
A visit to your home by organising Committee members will need to be scheduled at a time convenient to you and your family.
An Information Evening for families accepted to host will be held at Sutherland Shire Council Chambers on a date to be advised.
