Domestic violence survivors' refuge

Avatar: Community Member Community Member

What problem would you like to solve?

Helping families that suffer from domestic violence, making resources easily available to them to escape from the situation, more places for them to go for a warm place to sleep, get fed, other necessities.

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

So many people are in domestic violence situations but it isn't safe for them to leave. People die because of this and that shouldn't be happening.

What idea do you have to address the problem?

Give money to the places that do exist so they can be well protected (so people don't have to worry and feel anxious, especially at night) Expand the places that exist with more staff (and build more, but that's a different budget!)

Who would that help?

Families as a whole, especially the people suffering from domestic violence

What NYC borough would benefit from your idea?

Bronx
