CAAAV Organizing Asian Communities is a grassroots organization founded in 1986 by Asian women in New York City. Their mission is to empower working class Asian immigrants in Chinatown and Astoria to combat gentrification, fight for housing rights, and build neighborhood power.
Through initiatives like the Chinatown Tenants Union and Astoria Tenants Union, CAAAV works to address displacement, landlord harassment, and speculative development while developing the leadership of community members to shape the future of their homes and neighborhoods.
