The Warning Letter is utilized in cases where there are serious behavioral concerns, rule infractions, school suspension and/or the participant is engaging in risky behaviors. It serves to inform the participant of AFS guidelines and expectations. It is mainly used in two different kinds of situations: as the final support tool in an ongoing support process that involved a Plan for Success and/or Support Agreement, or to address an incident or pattern of behavior that jeopardizes the sustainability of the student’s program. In either situation, the Warning Letter calls attention to the problematic behavior and describes the expectations for the participant moving forward and consequences for non-compliance with the action items outlined in the Warning Letter. This Microlearning strives to provide an overview of the Warning Letter, what situations would prompt the need for AFS USA Support Staff to issue a Warning Letter.
