EBT/SNAP/Other supportive services app

What problem would you like to solve?

The USDA provides the services but the people in the community are not able or do not have the means to access the programs and the foods.

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

There are programs that people can benefit from but if they don't know how or where to go to access them then it is of no use.

What idea do you have to address the problem?

We need a website/app that anyone can sign into that provides step-by-step guides, individual contacts and other program resources to people to take advantage of government programs that exist.

Who would that help?

This would help everyone who is entitled to program benefits, small business owners and farmers markets, grocery stores, etc.

What neighborhood would benefit from your idea?

East Flatbush
