So this work Castle member, this work is inherently led by community based organizations, and we we track a a a wide array of metrics with number of people, number of events, and deputy commissioner can go really in in a very specific detail.

We've got two pages of the metrics that we have depending on the grant that we operate and what information we collect from our grantees.

So that work is done to ensure that there's outcomes from that work that we can all celebrate, and it's leading to rural revitalization on corridors across the city.
