    What problem would you like to solve?

    Lack of computer skills and intergenerational connection in Coney Island.

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

    This issue is the most relevant because it can have a lasting impact on families who live in NYCHA. Youth and family services catered to NYCHA families can help children who come from \"broken\" homes or families that don't have access to resources that can provide a safety net for them.

    What idea do you have to address the problem?

    Create a pilot computer lab that families in NYCHA have access to with free printing and microsoft products.

    Who would that help?

    It will help people who do not have access to the internet, printing or knowledge on how to use programs. Would help public housing residents apply for services.

    What NYC borough would benefit from your idea?

    Brooklyn
