Hello Chiang Mai!

We are your friends and neighbors, creating online support groups for each of our Chiang Mai neighborhoods.

We are faced with an unprecedented situation and many unknowns, and feel that the best way to prepare is to strengthen the bonds of our community. In Chiang Mai, we have always been blessed with such connections. We feel they should now safely extend to all, especially the most vulnerable among us.

The Community Support Groups aim to;

identify

  • who might need help
  • who is willing to help, and in which ways

Provide reliable information (health, travel, legal issues etc)

Provide support

We are also connected with the main communications channel at this time, a governor-sanctioned Facebook page, COVID Foreign Community Support Group and the CM Search and Rescue, both of which are working together and in constant contact with the consulates, and to various churches and organizations. Our goal is to attend to local issues and create as much support as possible for everyone. We will leave no one behind.

Please join the group of your area, and invite more people to join as well. The more well-knit the social fabric, the smoother the information flow, the more certainty we can have.

We are all going to need support.

Physical Distancing AND Social Strengthening!
