In 2005, members of the Task Force conducted a survey among 18 organizations around the country. These organizations represent the diversity of resources and services available to the South Asian communities around the country. The purpose of the survey was to provide a snapshot of these organizations in terms of staffing, communities served, and services provided.

Out of these surveys, we unearth organizational priorities, infrastructure issues, barriers encountered, and perspectives on national coalition building. All of this will help us gain an understanding of the role of organizations such as these in building a movement that strives to raise our voices.
