Lake Chapala Society steps in to help elderly expat in crisis

pg7

What happens when an elderly foreign resident at Lakeside becomes physically or mentally incapacitated and has no local next of kin or close friends able to assume responsibility for their care?

A case in point is that of Kathryn B., a U.S. citizen who has resided in Ajijic since 2021.

On Wednesday, June 18, she was evicted from a local hotel for non-payment of lodging fees. She was promptly picked up off the street with her meager belongings by Chapala police. Her only form of identification was a Lake Chapala Society (LCS) membership card.
