For 15 years my wife and I hosted a graduate student from abroad through a local college program. Every three years we had a student stay with us for about seven months. Two were from Africa (Somalia and Gabon), and the other three were from the UK, China, and Venezuela. We still keep in touch with all but one of them.

We'd love to host a refugee family, but there are a million and one governmental hoops to jump through, so we haven't pursued it. We should probably step up our efforts though, just so I'm not called out again here for having the gall to support law and human rights.
