What we do<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Teaching cross-culturally<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We have worked for over 20 years serving people who face different stages of cross-cultural living and life transitions. We serve them mainly through teaching and educating kids and their families in highly mobile, international environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This journey has taken us through Costa Rica, Haiti, Indonesia, and the Treasure Valley in Idaho. We have come alongside students and families formally through educational roles in traditional classrooms, but also in non-traditional contexts such as through churches, overseas expat communities, and outdoor education.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our joy is to come alongside children and their families as they navigate cross-cultural living and the life transitions that a highly-mobile lifestyle brings.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our mission is to connect people across barriers of culture, country, class and creed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our vision is to create a world where no one is separated from the saving knowledge or meaningful relationships they need. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
