Describe the challenge you want to address:
One significant challenge many youth and young adults in urban areas face is the lack of fun and engaging spaces outside of schools or distant centers that cater to our diverse interest and needs. This challenge hampers youth ability to fully enjoy the city they live in. Example, limited recreation options/organized programs. High cost of entertainment, limited access to technology to safe inclusive spaces.
Describe your idea and approach to address the challenge:
Create a program citywide that provide access to technical skill programs with addition to arts, music and technology. These centers will act as satellite program that also support participants with career exploration, job readiness, stipend, family assistance and etc.
