Inspiration - At the hackathon , I met Lisa (the teacher /social worker) and was surprised to learn that she takes care of the needs of 350 students by herself. She aggregates information from various people in the school and provides treatment for the students. She spends 80 % of the time dealing with paper , and 20% front facing and interacting with the students. I challenged myself to determine whether i can make Lisa's life easier to free her time to focus on meeting the needs of vulnerable children.
