What problem would you like to solve?
There are too many fast-food restaurants and unhealthy stores in Harlem.
Why is it important to solve? Why is it relevant for the community?
Residents diagnosed with various health issues from a very young age. E.G., diabetes, obesity, dental problems, vision and heart problems. Heathier residents will live longer and be happier.
What idea do you have to address the problem?
Health advocates visiting pre-schools, schools, senior centers, places of worship, NYPL, etc. These advocates will be educating the community of the benefits of a healthy diet. There should also be more gardens planted around the community for direct access to healthier foods.
Who would that help?
Everyone from infants to our seniors.
What NYC borough would benefit from your idea?
Manhattan
