It's  is designed to promote public diplomacy through the exchange of cultural ideas and values among participants, U.S. families, and local community host organizations. The Community Connections Program offers home-stay based practical training opportunities in the U.S. for entrepreneurs, local government officials, legal professionals, non-governmental organization leaders and other professionals from Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Russia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan.  Local community host organizations arrange meetings, hands-on training, and internships for participants based on interests and experience.
