About Gypsy & Tribal Development

Started in the south Indian city of Chennai by our partner Priya*, Gypsy & Tribal Development reaches gypsy and tribal peoples with the Gospel and demonstrates Christ’s love through holistic community development initiatives. Gypsies and tribals, generally considered to be the lowest of the low castes in India’s social hierarchy, suffer from inadequate housing, low-paying jobs and poor nutrition. Their work includes helping these communities exercise their civil rights – assisting them in accessing land, education, job training, government ID cards, proper water and electricity, and so forth.
