Idea Submission for The People's Money:
Crossing guards are very helpful. Food pantry clients would benefit greatly! Groups that serve senior clients should get help surveying their neighborhood for safety/sidewalk obstacles.
What is the problem your idea aims to address?
Public safety - seniors are not cell phone savvy (training). Pot holes in various neighborhood. Food pantry contact to reach becomes dangerous. The transit authority. Steps become a challenge.
