The staff has demonstrated a creativity and commitment by initiating a new annual event, our International Barbecue, and by designing highly rated interactive training programs, such as Meet America, a Global Ties U.S. program, in addition to the organization’s more traditional homestay offerings, membership activities, our ever-popular First Thursdays, and the development of itineraries for the International Visitor Leadership Program and other federally-sponsored groups. A staff transition and a move to The Global Switchboard in Pittsburgh’s Lawrenceville neighborhood at the close of the calendar year made the year anything but typical.
