Additionally, Bronx Community District 1 (CD1), which is comprised of the neighborhoods of Mott Haven, Melrose and Port Morris) had the lowest voter turnout of all 59 community districts citywide. In short, Bronx CD1 that is not as civically engaged as it could be despite having some great community institutions and organizations. This lack of civic engagement has many repercussions: namely lack of political accountability, resulting in issues in the neighborhoods being worse than they would be if more people were organized, educated and empowered with the knowledge and confidence to shape systemic change. \n\n</div></dd><dt name=\"textarea-1727191235485-0\">What is the solution to the challenge?</dt><dd id=\"textarea-1727191235485-0\" name=\"textarea\">\n\n<div>The solution to this challenge is young people.
