Social services are a range of public services provided by the government, private, profit and non-profit organizations. These public services aim to create more effective organizations, build stronger communities, and promote equality and opportunity.
Social services helps citizens and the masses gets the services they need to manage their daily lives, getting those services is very hard to find, incorrectly arranged and sometimes not accurate. This leads to majority of the people who needs this services ending up not having access to them.
There are existing services that offers directory for social services but all of them suffer from different problems such as Grouping by zipcode (aunt bertha), Inaccurate and old data(one degree) and others doesn't provide enough information useful for the service.
takes the problems from all the existing system and carved a novel solution from it by providing features such as:
Location based search: User can search with different location mode such as coordinates, zip code, street name and e.t.c and still retrieves data within the location.
Crowd Source Data population: We create a feature where a user can upload social services data into the system instead of waiting for the platform provider to load the data.
Data Verification: Services added by users goes through several validation process both programmatically and once it pass the acceptance test, It will be added to the database.
