Safety of Children Traveling Abroad

There are organizations such as the for-profit People to People Ambassador Program that offer adults and children trips to foreign countries. We traveled to Washington D.C. with the People to People Ambassador Program and were disappointed with their communication skills, and the way they treated both the children and the adults who were traveling with their organization. After we returned home, we learned about Tyler Hill. He was a sixteen year-old student who died in Japan while under the care of the People to People Ambassador Program.
