People with Disabilities

Describe the challenge you want to address:

It is much harder to live in this world that already favors specific inds, and is already a struggle to live and survive as a person with a chronic disability. I have experienced BIPOC discrimination in countless places. I was born in a shleter and seeing people living in cardboard boxes breaks my heart everyday.

What is the solution to the challenge?

I want to create a program that would present job fairs/resume building for people with disabilities, unhoused, and BIPOC. In this institution, discrimination would cease to exist. This program would also present oppportunities for people as a way to get off the streets.
