And so it's very important to any implementation process.
0:37:16
Okay.
0:37:17
We've been joined by council member Joseph.
0:37:19
Hopefully, I read your I did your statement justice by reading it.
0:37:22
But, and if you have questions, just let us know if you wanna ask.
0:37:28
Okay.
0:37:28
Okay.
0:37:29
So let me just ask a couple more questions, then I'll hand it off to colleagues to also ask.
0:37:33
And then we can do other rounds if necessary.
0:37:35
But, to the 1103 bill, I I actually think and and maybe this is just my the way I'm reading it.
0:37:44
So I totally agree with all the things you're doing with the 988 and, letting folks know through, oh my gosh.
0:37:52
I'm blanking.
0:37:53
The online web text Through the Teenspace?
0:38:00
No.
0:38:00
What is it?
0:38:00
Teenspace.
0:38:01
I'm sorry.
0:38:01
Yes.
0:38:01
Teenspace.
0:38:02
Sorry.
0:38:02
I had a brain lapse for a second.
0:38:04
Yeah.
0:38:04
So, Teenspace, which are all really good things that I know that the city has been trying to work on and implement.
0:38:10
I think the bill though, to my question also, was sort of the step before that happens.
0:38:15
So, I think once we've identified that someone does need further help, after a traumatic event, then, you know, I I do believe that you all are doing a good job in notifying them about all the services.
0:38:27
But I guess, my question is more, how does how does it get reported?
0:38:32
Or how do we take that data in the step before, like, flow?
0:38:36
So let's just say there's an actual I don't know.
0:38:39
I'm just making something up.
0:38:40
But there's an incident or a report through either ACS or through a police report where there was clearly something traumatic that happened in someone's home.
0:38:48
Right?
0:38:49
Then how does that data get translated to then or handed off to you all and how does it get sort of recorded is I guess my question or reported?
