Healthcare Assistance

Avatar: Community Member Community Member 06/25/2025 12:30

What problem would you like to solve?

The amount of money people have to pay for healthcare is too costly.

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

This is important because if people cannot afford to take care of themselves, then they will not seek treatment if they are hurt.

What idea do you have to address the problem?

A program to reallocate NYC funding and give more to the Heath and wellbeing area. A program to help people pay for some of their medical bills.

Who would that help?

Everyone, but especially low-income families.

What NYC borough would benefit from your idea?

Brooklyn
