Senior Center/Transportation for the Elderly

Avatar: Official proposal Official proposal

What problem would you like to solve?

Encouraging elderly adult socialization with a senior center and having a transportation system for the elderly as it is hard for them to get around.

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

This is important to solve because the elderly may have mental health issues that arise from boredom and loneliness.

What idea do you have to address the problem?

Purchase buses for transportation, create a community center specifically for elderly residents, and hire bus drivers for the buses.

Who would that help?
