We implement this mission through organizing, advocacy and direct services in the areas of housing justice, economic justice, immigration, and civic engagement.

About This Cause

Chhaya provides direct services in the areas of housing, economic justice, immigration and civic engagement. We construct our foundational direct services through the lens of organizing and advocacy in an effort to create systemic change. Chhaya provides services in multiple South Asian languages, including Bengali, Hindi, Urdu, Nepali and Tibetan. Chhaya serves low-to-moderate income families across Queens and New York City, with particular focus on reaching South Asian and Indo-Caribbean immigrants (i.e. people from the regions of South Asia, including Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, Nepal, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, etc as well as South Asian diaspora communities from the Caribbean).
