This project is designed to assist the local community in addressing critical social issues by fostering engagement and collaboration among stakeholders. By identifying specific problems and gaps in existing research, we aim to provide actionable solutions that align with the mission of our sponsoring agency. Our contributions will focus on generating relevant data, developing targeted methodologies, and facilitating discussions to cultivate a deeper understanding of social implications. Through sustained volunteer efforts and community participation, we seek to create meaningful change and support the broader mission of community welfare.
