Changes at "Community Center Programs"

What problem would you like to solve?

Our older youth do not have places and safe spaces that they can utilize as our community center afterschool has age limits. We need programming and spaces that older youth can use from 3-6 like they had when they were younger in after school.

Why is it important to solve? Why is it relevant for the community?

Because we need an outlet for older youth and seniors of the community. Especially those that aged out of existing programs.

What idea do you have to address the problem?

Additional funding for CBO's that provide afterschool programming to allow older youth an additional space that they can utilize while parents are working.

Who would that help?

The community as a whole

What neighborhood would benefit from your idea?

Washington Heights/Inwood
