Safe Avenue, Safe Neighborhood. Address the problems in our communities which are destroying the growth of our young people and lifestyles of elders

Avatar: Community Member Community Member

What problem would you like to solve?

Lack of intergenerational safe-haven programs in our communities.

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

Young people can have a home to express themselves through education and culture. Also, cultural home for the elders. To keep the young people off the streets and they can network with their elders.

What idea do you have to address the problem?

Create after school and weekend school programs. Create a mentorship program, Study program, Educating cultural barriers program

Who would that help?

Everyone in the community 

What NYC borough would benefit from your idea?

Central Brooklyn - Crown Height, Flatbush, East Flatbush, Bedford Stuyvesant, Park Slope, Brownsville, East New York, Canarsie
