And we believe that most of those providing services agree that Linda's Place is one of the best-run shelters in Anchorage. We have segregated space for women, for men and women, which provides a different additional security for our women, the women we serve. We have an integrated behavioral health specialist to attempt to address the underlying issues. We have specific protocols around cleanliness to ensure that our shelter is one of the cleanest in the city. We attempt to minimize drug and alcohol abuse while recognizing that we manage a low barrier shelter and we offer high quality food.
