Abstract, Summary, or Creative Statement

The purpose of my project was to research a social justice issue and find out how the community can help work toward solving the problem. I researched the issue and came up with ways to get involved. I learned about how unsustainable infrastructure negatively impacts social communities, like caretakers. I also learned about my personal stake in the issue and why this issue is so important. Additionally, I practiced some of things I recommended that the community start doing, including preparing to attend a city council meeting to fight for an important problem relating to this issue. I walked away with a newfound understanding of social justice and the task at hand.
