Avatar: Official proposal Official proposal

What problem would you like to solve?

What problem would you like to solve?

Many Teens do not receive appropriate sex education about the changes they are experiencing through puberty and the dangers of unsafe sex.

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

It is important for young adults to be aware of their developmental changes and ways to protect themselves against disease, infections and pregnancy.

What idea do you have to address the problem?

Create a safe space in the community that provides educational workshops and access to safe sex options and birth control in addition to connections to healthcare providers in the community.

Who would that help?

Teens and young adults who are challenged with changes in their development

What neighborhood would benefit from your idea?

Melrose and mott haven
