About this Project

Beyond reporting, it connects individuals to rehabilitation resources, prioritizing prevention and recovery. By combining community safety with compassion, the platform empowers safer neighborhoods and offers support for second chances.

Professional Feedback
This is a big problem in the city and I think that your two-sided approach is excellent. I am impressed that you are thinking not just about reporting, but also about prevention and providing resources to people who need help. The hierarchy of your app makes a lot of sense - I like that emergency resources and help are easily accessible when you first open the app as it is important that these features are very easy to find quickly. Your presentation is very clear and looks excellent - I particularly love the illustrations. Great work using your problem-solving and design skills to make the city a safer place for everyone!
