Yeah.
1:21:17
Thank you, council member.
1:21:17
I'm gonna let deputy commissioner Linares, speak to that.
1:21:20
I would just say one thing.
1:21:23
You know, there's it it we have to have a full continuum of services.
1:21:27
There should be consistency in what's available.
1:21:30
In the instance that you described, right, there were providers, we were proud to be 1, who were saying we need to go above and beyond what is expected.
1:21:39
That led to, Fair Futures, where everyone's getting that now.
1:21:44
We wanna build on provider innovation and success, and so but then we gotta put the resources to it.
1:21:50
I wanna let Louisa talk a little bit about that.
