New York City Assists

What problem would you like to solve?

Emergency services provided with easy access for people who are in emergency or unstable situations.

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

It is important to solve because there are long processes and long waits when it comes to things people need urgently. Many people give up on the process and try to solve their problems in other ways.

What idea do you have to address the problem?

NYC should have more large camper units to park in different locations all over the city where people can openly explain what is going on and get express benefits in the meantime while they wait. They could also have a small meal and water provided while they are being assisted.

Who would that help?

It would help the homeless, the unemployed and more.

What NYC borough would benefit from your idea?

All boroughs
