Okay, so next question is, are we providing shelter and spaces to connect with resource? So I know we've talked through this a couple times, but just so you're clear, we have 300 year-round beds, 100 at 5656, 100 at Linda's Place, 100 at the Alex. The Alex is non-profit congregate, the other two are congregate. And then between November 2025 and April 2026, we went up to 450 beds with our surge beds. So we added 100 beds at East 56 and we added 50 beds at Linda's Place and those have all now closed.
