Focus
As a community-based nonprofit organization established to serve South Asian women in times of crisis and need, Chaya raises awareness of domestic violence issues. Chaya is comprised of a network of people who are primarily South Asian and who understand the cultural norms and stigmas associated with domestic violence. Volunteers believe in the inherent strength and potential of each woman to address situations in which there has been systematic emotional and physical violence. Chaya’s services are free, confidential, and available to any woman in need.
