Senior Centered Mental Health Help for All

Avatar: Community Member Community Member

What problem would you like to solve?

Issues on Mental Health with children, adults and seniors

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

Public health services often have enormous wait lists to receive services in the field of mental health. In my community, there are problems with mental health issues that are not being addressed.

What idea do you have to address the problem?

Starting a support group with seniors where a person can get help. Survey senior centers, youth programs and nurseries to see just how many need what kind of service.

Who would that help?

All those with mental health issues across all ages would be helped because they would finally be heard.

What NYC borough would benefit from your idea?

East Harlem
