Abstract
The purpose of this review was to explore the literature as it relates to the impact of study abroad from the perspective of host community members. Research regarding study abroad focuses on the benefits and impact on student participants leaving a limited body of knowledge that focuses on the host community perspective. Guided by Watson's Human Caring Science, an integrative literature review with descriptive analysis was conducted. Four themes surfaced from the review: establishment of trust, consideration of reciprocity, acknowledgment of responsibility, and implementation of preparation. Each theme was discussed in detail and connected to Watson's 10 caritas processes.
