Thank you. And I would like to work with you on perhaps new legislative language about increasing the ability to do partnerships, faith based partnerships. As I mentioned to you yesterday, There's a not for profit in the Bronx called the Fortune Society...they deal with formerly incarcerated men, which is a very critical population that are at risk for homelessness. Not only do they house them, they give them skills training, they give them mental health support, they give them any substance use disorder order prevention that's necessary. (03:11–03:25)
