From the transcript
And again, I just want to appreciate all of the work that ACF and their team has put into developing this grant process, to our staff that have been working very closely with CMS And to all of you that have asked us really, really good questions, we are creating this program as we are all learning from each other, and this is the timeline that is before us. I do want to reiterate, though, of the 403 proposals, um, there, the funding request exceeds the available funding. And so I see many questions about Can I shore it up? Will that make my application more competitive? I would say it, it will definitely help the dollar go further, but make sure that you're really focusing in on answering the questions as Megan walked you through the different elements of the application.
