Organizations & Religious Services
Expatriate groups are a vital resource for newcomers in Santiago. These groups are not just your first step to becoming a part of Chile’s English-language community; they also help you build ties in the Chilean community. Since the members have all been newcomers in Santiago, expatriate groups gather information from personal experience to create orientation resources for new members.
There are four principal ex-patriot groups in Santiago: the American Association, the British International Group (BIG), the Canadian Association and the Professional Women’s Group. Though the American, British and Canadian organizations’ members are mostly expatriates from those country, membership is open to all expatriates. Some expatriates join all three groups. All three groups have monthly general meetings and plan regular events like luncheons, tours, dancing and children’s programs.
