Unfortunately, the Arduino doesn’t support multi-threading. Instead, I’ve written a library to provide crude multi-threading support. Jlamothe/mthread. Protothreads - Lightweight, Stackless Threads in C. Protothreads are extremely lightweight stackless threads designed for severely memory constrained systems, such as small embedded systems or wireless sensor network nodes.

Protothreads - Lightweight, Stackless Threads in C

Protothreads provide linear code execution for event-driven systems implemented in C. Protothreads can be used with or without an underlying operating system to provide blocking event-handlers. Protothreads provide sequential flow of control without complex state machines or full multi-threading.
