- Unhoused People
- Describe the challenge you want to address:
- Part of my experience as an unhoused, unemployed person has included looking for a job in other cities. I've noticed that other cities have "Drop In" centers that are hygienic, welcoming, and organized. Places where you can obtain information and clothing and, in some cases, hot meals, showers, and work supplies. Like 67 Newbury St. in Back Bay Boston.
- What is the solution to the challenge?
- In addition to the drop-in center on West 14th St in Manhattan, I'd like to propose another drop-in center called "A Place to Be". this would offer a 24 hour sanctuary where homeless people an who needs a place to be can go and read, now have conversations etc. A place for people to chill. No services, no appointments. Just beverages, clean space, bathrooms, security guards that are part of the community.
