Now CHSFS is able to offer a new option for families that would like to travel to China, India, Russia or Vietnam.  Families may choose their travel dates and we work with them to create their travel experience.  Rather than trying to fit your trip into the pre-arranged travel times we will work with families who wish to travel in a specific year by setting a travel time agreeable to the group* that is ready that year. 

We can assist with preparing families who wish to travel independently or send a worker along with a group that wishes to travel with a greater range of staffing support. 

*Families are encouraged to recruit friends and others who are interested in traveling along with the group.  However, the creation of a group is not necessary upon registration.  It may be possible for CHSFS to find other families for you to travel with.  A group of 12-15 could support a CHSFS staff presence on the trip.
