Here, “address” means “to solve”
Let me look it up in the dictionary for you: address: to deal with, to handle； Meet (needs) – Address a problem (or an issue) – Deal with problems; Address the needs of veterans – Find ways to satisfy the needs of retired soldiers
It should mean eliminating worries in the sentence
