Lack of information, loneliness

Information empowers people and community groups helps with depression and loneliness

What idea do you have to address the problem?

A group that meets monthly to get to know a different NYC agency. One day they can meet and go to the park, learn from a ranger, help clean up the park. On another day, they can meet and learn about the importance of civic engagement, meet with the local council member and learn about how they can be an ally. On another day, they can meet at a museum and learn about arts and culture. Another time they can learn about the NYC Office of Immigrant Affairs and its resources.

Who would that help?

Everyone, especially immigrants
