Essential

Bridge The Gap.

Avatar: Official proposal Official proposal

What problem would you like to solve?

I would like to bridge the gap between the working poor and middle class.

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

Residents of this community deserve a better quality of life.

What idea do you have to address the problem?

Affordable housing and help locating affordable housing. Vocational training for gainful employment. We need to generate more jobs that match an actual living wage. A service that can help with trainings and can help navigate affordable housing applications would be helpful in this community.

Who would that help?

Everyone, especially folks who are low-income.

What neighborhood would benefit from your idea?
