Chhaya cdc

Chhaya builds the power, housing stability, and economic well-being of South Asian and Indo-Caribbean communities in New York City. Based in Jackson Heights, Queens, Chhaya (meaning “shelter”) assists with housing issues from basement legalizations to tenant rights. While not explicitly abolitionist, they address how predatory landlords and policing (e.g., building inspectors used as ICE proxies) intersect.
