    What problem would you like to solve?

    We need when we step outside at night better lights. We need to have better street crossing signs. The sidewalk's not all broken up where using a walker.

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

    Because it's a hazard, it's dangerous. When you're putting your foot down or getting off access-a-ride, putting down where you don't have an even platform, when pushing your walker there are cracks and holes in the street where you can fall over and fall down.

    What idea do you have to address the problem?

    So we won't further injure ourselves, a program to help keep us balanced for our safety. Better shoes, walkers, canes, and stuff that we can get to help balance us when we're going out. Better walkers so that won't be as low down and we can stand up straight.

    Who would that help?

    Elderly, seniors, all involved, help each

    What NYC borough would benefit from your idea?
