 The Chiapas Project
The Chiapas Project and Richard Flamer run a small Catholic Worker Farm just outside San Cristobal de Las Casas in Chiapas (on the road to Guatemala). Our work involves working with our local community in developmental projects including stove building, chickens, rabbits, red worms for fertilizer, etc. Additionally we house passing migrants as the need arises. We are also involved with various community groups in building a clinic (at Campo Santiago), a church (in 5 de Marzo) and a school (also at 5 de Marzo.) We are actively involved with various groups of Nuns, a small AIDS hospice, refugee camps, etc. We occasionally host Graduate students who want to work in the region and assist them in making contacts, finding lodging, etc.
