The mission of Madison International Partners is to help global citizens living in, or connected to, the Madison area thrive through hospitality, friendship and cross-cultural exchanges.

Through our various programs and activities, we create conditions for international experience-sharing and gaining a better understanding among people of different races, cultures, religions, and social backgrounds.

We are committed to helping international students and visiting scholars and their family members experience and enjoy American culture, make significant friendships, and adjust to life in the U.S. We help them improve their English skills by matching them up with native English speakers for conversation and friendship. This also offers Americans the opportunity to be exposed to foreign cultures without leaving home.

MIP programs and activities provide opportunities to make new friends and connections with people from all over the world.

Please contact us online or call (608) 257-4845 to request more information about MIP opportunities.
