Describe the challenge you want to address:
There is no safety in the parks. Children are not safe at the community park due to older people smoking, riding motorized scooters and congregating where they play. There has been broken glass in the park. There is also a need for free tutoring programs and summer programs; preferably in the schools.
What is the solution to the challenge?
Providing security in the parks and more regular cleanup. Ensuring that all schools have an afterschool program. Provide more summer programs that include academics as well as recreational activities and sports.
