The virtual interchange will include a mix of in-person activities in Jacksonville with the Jacksonville families and virtual synchronous and asynchronous activities with youth and their families in Brazil.\nHere are the benefits of virtual interchanges.\n\n\n No international travel so safer from COVID\n\n\n No air travel so much less expensive (there will be a small program fee but we don’t know yet how much that will be – much less than normal)\n\n\nLess immersive so less conflict with other things participants might want to do\, such as travel with their family or participate in local activities (we anticipate some asynchronous activities and some synchronous meetings every week over a 4-6 week period in summer 2021)\n\n\nMore potential to emphasize partnership with a local nonprofits  to advance CISV educational goals  – including conversation about a solution-oriented culminating presentation jointly prepared by both delegations — families invited\n\n\nApply here\nVirtual Interchanges would aim to maintain these benefits of traditional\, in-person Interchanges:\n\n\nParticipants selected from chapters in delegations so youth and their families will get to know each other by planning some joint activities\, helping to strengthen bonds within chapters\n\n\nOne-to-one matching of delegates from the two countries\, for communication and relationship-building across cultures\n\n\nSome level of communication among families of paired delegates; inclusion of families in some virtual Interchange activities\, building enthusiasm for CISV among parents\n\n\nDeep dive into the culture of one partner country\, rather than connecting with people from a range of countries\n\n\nSmaller number of people involved than with a CISV camp\, which makes the whole program easier to manage\n\n\nActivities relating to CISV educational goals\, organizational culture and themes\n\n\n Trained adult leaders guiding delegations and helping delegations plan for months before the actual Interchange starts\n\n\nNational nights organized by both delegations\, with sharing of recipes and culture – families invited\n\n\nHere’s a video about virtual exchanges generally that will help you understand these types of programs.\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KxunF4cZPdw&feature=youtu.be&ab_channel=StevensInitiative URL:https://jacksonville.cisvusa.org/event/virtual-interchange-with-brazil/ ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://jacksonville.cisvusa.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/19/2019/10/Ian-Partner.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20210614T083000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20210625T173000 DTSTAMP:20260426T014548 CREATED:20210513T133912Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210616T194208Z UID:10000118-1623659400-1624642200@jacksonville.cisvusa.org SUMMARY:Faces of Jacksonville Camp DESCRIPTION:FACES of Jacksonville is a free 2-week local cultural camp for children entering 5th\, 6th or 7th grade.\nIn 2021 FACES of Jacksonville will be a day camp from 9am to 5 pm\, with drop off any time after 8am and pick up before 6pm from June 14 to June 25 at 4000 Spring Park Road Jacksonville\, FL 32207.  The camp will have a adult to youth ratio of less than 8 children per 1 adult.  Jr. Counselors\, age 16-17\, will also support the camp. \nYouth interested in attending FACES must register using the form below and have 2 people provide references for the child using the form here.  One of the references should be from a current teacher. \nActivities will follow social distancing restrictions\, participants will wear masks and other covid-related protocols will be followed. \nThis is a video with more info about FACES:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXopsuNnskg \nFACES of Jacksonville camp can no longer accept any registrations.  Please sign up for our newsletter to stay involved with CISV. \n\n\n \n \n Faces of Jacksonville Registration\n \n "*" indicates required fields \n \n Name of Youth Participant*\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n PhoneEmail\n \n Describe how you'd like to participate (such as a youth delegate\, leader for the program\, volunteer\, donor\, etc.)Youth delegateAdult leader for a group of youthGeneral Volunteer - serve meals\, help with set-up and break-downDonor - provide or solicit donations of food\, supplies\, etc.Other roleDo you belong to a particular cultural group?
