Dushaw has over 20 years of experience in community building and organizational development, including as Director of Special Initiatives for the Center for Community Change (CCC), where he led projects focused on affordable housing, immigration and race, and as a former aide to Representative Nydia M. Velazquez (NY), the first Puerto Rican woman elected to the U.S. Congress.
