August 8: Shanghai 123 - The expat Orientation by CCS

About Shanghai 123:

Shanghai 123 is a grassroots initiative led by the local international community. Designed for individuals and families during their most critical period - with less than 6 months experience in Shanghai -Shanghai 123 is a free half-day orientation showcasing community volunteer talent who talk about common challenges, answerquestions and provide practical resources and tips. A light breakfast, lunchand care for children 2-12 years old is provided free of charge.

Launched in 2008 with the help of Michelle Wright, an expat from the USA, a Shanghai Community International School mother, American Women's Club member and CCS employee, the idea grew organically as aninitiative recognizing the need for anot-for-profit, non-partisan platform forsharing resources and tips. Relying 100% on excellent speakers and clearmessages/lessons, the program grew to form what we proudly call Shanghai 123, bringing the international community the basics of what is needed for a softlanding in Shanghai.
