- Describe the challenge you want to address:
- Lack of Civic engagement by youth who will be the potential leaders in the community, as well as to increase the number of minority social workers and therapists serving our community
- What is the solution to the challenge?
- To take the youth to pair them up with seniors in the neighborhood who can serve as mentors. The youth will be able to earn community service/ volunteer hours and seniors in senior housing or NYCHA will be able to spend time in social interaction, The youth will be responsible for a project on the life story of their mentor, and the senior will teach the youth a skill like cooking, sewing. The hope is that they want to get more engaged in social service.
