Describe the challenge you want to address:
I have experienced challenges with after school care for my children. I think it should be wellness parent workshops for stress, resume-job placement, healthy living. Also, safe environment to LGBTQ-people. They are sometimes mistreated and misunderstood. A safe place for seniors to meet to fellowship and get out of their homes and transportation provided. (Spanish workshop for people who want to learn Spanish. It's difficult when you are in a Spanish community can't speak the language.)
What is the solution to the challenge?
To work towards the solution to the issues would include wellness workshops, healthy cooking workshops, healthy living workshops, workshop training for parents/youth/LGBTQ. The training workshops would be held in our public libraries. Workshops to learn Spanish.
