Give your idea a short title:

  • +{"en"=>"English classes for Chinese American Older Adults"}

Body

  • +["

    What problem would you like to solve?

    Chinese American Older Adults don’t understand English which make their life harder in many ways

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

    Because language barriers make them difficult to communicate in many ways, in senior centers, grocery, hospitals, and dealing with applications and forms

    What idea do you have to address the problem?

    Have a Chinese-speaking teacher to teach them basic English

    Who would that help?

    All Chinese American Older Adults whose English proficiency is low

    What NYC borough would benefit from your idea?

    Staten Island
