It's like a backstage pass

IJM Thailand's work with stateless people continues to build relationships with unlikely sources. 

This past week, our group literally set up camp under a Buddhist temple.  IJM was the only Christian organization invited.  Our reputation as a professional expert in the field of citizenship and legal status change provides opportunities for us to reach people who often are left unassisted. 

Through the course of the two days, we were able to begin a relationship with over a hundred individuals, and we strengthened our relationships with local government officials.  Not only that, but we were able to have some fun with kids.  After all, it was Stateless Children's Day.  Below are some photos.
