What problem would you like to solve?

Immigrant communities have suggested that they do not feel safe walking home because the street lamps are so dim.

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

Everyone should feel safe walking home.

What idea do you have to address the problem?

If the street lights cannot be brightened, the community should be provided safety kits such as flashlights and legal defense protections.

Who would that help?

Workers that work latte at night.

What neighborhood would benefit from your idea?

Queensbridge
