Chai and Chat: South Asian International Support Group

The Chai and Chat: South Asian International Support Group is a space for students from South Asia to connect with peers, share challenges and triumphs, and foster social support while building a sense of community.  

This program stemmed from student feedback on fostering avenues for connection for students from the south Asian diaspora. In addition to being culturally responsive, the program also showcases various services and resources to support students throughout their time at the University of Toronto. 

Objective: 2.5

Draw on student-centered data and feedback to develop and adapt programs, services, and resources, to meet the needs of both specific and broad intersectional student identities, including Indigenous, Black, Asian, racialized, LGBTQ2S+, graduate and professional students, international students, part-time students, mature students, students with disabilities, and students with family responsibilities.
