Describe the challenge you want to address:

A community challenge I've seen / experienced is the low quality of education in low income communities such as Bushwick. There are limited classes one could take and as a student you can sometimes feel helpless when completing homework because alot of students are first generation.

What is the solution to the challenge?

I think tutoring can help this issue as well as more exposure to higher education. A program that offers/spreads knowledge of college and trade schools. A program that offers afterschool tutoring/ professional guidance. This can help close the educational gap with their peers that may have access to additional help. This can also inspire them for the future.
