FHI is helping the Mae Tao Clinic in Mae Sot, Thailand, provide desperately needed health services to Burmese migrants, who number about one million along the Burmese border. Established in 1989, the Mae Tao Clinic works with non-governmental and community-based health organizations, the private sector, individual donors and the Thai government to increase the availability and effectiveness of health care along the Thai-Burma border. Here, undocumented workers - about two-thirds of all Burmese working in Thailand - are denied services from other sources. FHI's technical assistance is funded by the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief through the U.S. Agency for International Development.
