Serving Immigrant and Human Rights Violations for 30 Years.

Several clips of a protest in Miami

Coney Island Avenue Project. Headed by Bobby Khan, a longtime community activist, he fights for immigrant and human rights. Teaming with the Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR) and other civil rights organizations, the CIAP has had several major successes. CIAP was instrumental in closing the Weckenhurt Detainment Facility in Queens, NY, which was violating many civil rights of its detainees.

The Coney Island Avenue Project (CIAP) was formed in November 2001 to advocate on behalf of South Asian immigrants who were hurt by bias attacks and discriminatory policies in the post-September 11th climate of hate. The mission of our organization is to combat racism and promote the empowerment of working class South Asians through legislative policy change, legal advocacy and community-based education.

Today, CIAP actively supports South Asian working class immigrants as they take ownership of their communities, emerge as stakeholders and plan for their future.

The leadership of CIAP recognizes that sustainable community development is not just about addressing the emergencies, but also the everyday issues that arise at home, work, in school and on the streets.
