Each spring, members of the Alliance for International Exchange gather in Washington, D.C. to meet with their Senators, Representatives, and their respective staff members to share the success stories of the J-1 visa program.

This year, CENET staff members were able to meet with the offices of Senator Claire McCaskill, Senator Roy Blunt, and Representative Jason Smith.

By meeting with policymakers, CENET is able to demonstrate how the J-1 cultural exchange visa enables the U.S. to engage with future leaders, while also strengthening the U.S. economy, advancing key U.S. foreign policy and national security priorities, and fostering mutual understanding between U.S. citizens and counterparts around the world.
