Here, There & Everywhere is the FSYF quarterly newsletter, written by and for Foreign Service kids and teens. It is published every February, May, August and November. Each issue revolves around a stated theme and consists of articles, poems, short stories, illustrations, photographs and other contributions from Foreign Service youth. It’s a great way for kids to express themselves creatively, share ideas with their Foreign Service peers, and experience the joy of being published.
How to Contribute Articles and Illustrations
All Foreign Service kids and teens are invited to contribute
to Here, There & Everywhere. Those in the
Washington, DC metropolitan area are encouraged to
participate in writing workshops held the month prior to
publication. The three-hour workshops are an opportunity to
brainstorm, share ideas, offer advice and encouragement, and
make new friends. FSYF provides materials and lunch.
Check the
calendar on the home page for workshop dates/times and
location.
Foreign Service youth who are not in the DC area or cannot attend the writing workshops are invited to submit their newsletter contributions by fax (703-636-2611) or e-mail (fsyf@fsyf.org). The submission deadline is the 20th day of the month prior to publication (e.g. January 20 for the February issue).
Four times a year, FSYF sends an e-mail to all Foreign Service families in the FSYF database, which includes members and non-members, requesting newsletter submissions and announcing the theme of the upcoming issue. If you would like to be added to the FSYF database, please send a request to fsyf@fsyf.org.
Here, There & Everywhere is distributed by e-mail to all Foreign Service families in the FSYF database, which includes members and non-members. The newsletter is also sent via FLO to CLOs around the world to share with families at post.

In the past, FSYF published two newsletters — Around the World in a Lifetime (AWAL) for teens and Here, There & Everywhere for preteens. In 2009, FSYF rolled the two publications into one, with sections for both kids and teens, under the name Here, There & Everywhere. In another break from the past, FSYF no longer pays contributors for articles or artwork.
