THAIS, Inc.'s mission is to enhance the health and living status of the Thai community by providing health education, outreach, job and lifestyle training, and increasing access to social services. THAIS, Inc. currently volunteer and network with Queen of Angels-Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center Cancer Screening Program and Women Breast Center to provide education, access and follow-up through the BCEDP program. Through this collaboration and volunteering we are able each year to reach more than 500 Thai women for breast cancer screening. THAIS, Inc. has established Hollywood Thai Senior Club to assist seniors need with social services and special activities to reduce anxiety and stress. More than 30 senior members participate in hands-on activities and free lunch every first and third Wednesday of each month. The programs instill confidence among Thai senior citizens who, by working with their hands and minds, experience a sense of accomplishment, increased self-esteem, and peace of mind. The benefit they have derived from program activities such as soap sculpture, fruits and vegetable carving, and Thai lei making have encouraged them to start their own businesses.
