Meet Cristina, a very articulate and kind young lady from Romania! Cristina was born without her lower right leg, so she uses a prosthetic leg and a crutch to get around. She hasn’t let that slow her down, though! Cristina has a wide range of interests – from baking and crafts to debate and exploring parks, museums, and other places around her city. She is very excited to explore her American host community, too, and is especially excited to go to a football game!

Note: YES and FLEX students with disabilities receive additional support resources from Mobility International USA (MIUSA) and the YES and FLEX grants.

If you or someone you know would be interested in hosting Cristina this coming year, please let us know by emailing hosting@afsusa.org!
