What problem would you like to solve?

Low percentage of people receiving Public benefits, who are eligible, know they can attend trainings or colleges.

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

It’s important to solve because education is a way to help one rise above poverty, take care of their family, and give that to the community. The state has also owed a certain person to help people who receive public benefits

What idea do you have to address the problem?

The parents of high school seniors and high school seniors need to be addressed and informed so that they can be aware of their choices, this may save some from falling into debt.

Who would that help?

It would help young people or any other person that may have the desire to rise out of poverty by turning to education.

What NYC borough would benefit from your idea?

Bronx
