Earl, we're still having some technical difficulties on our end. Perhaps you could send your remarks about that space in writing to the committee, so that we can consider it as part of our study, because I do believe that this is one of the huge gaps.
Homelessness and addiction aren't necessarily one and the same, but there are many people who are homeless because they struggle with addiction, and if those people who are struggling with addiction are trying to find a path out, there are often very few paths available to them.
I'm going to give a space to explain some of what Earl does, because it truly is remarkable. They allow people who are trying to seek treatment an ability, after they've gone through detox, to have a place to live until they have a space to go to treatment. I truly believe that this is something that we could do better, because it goes after some of the low-hanging fruit. I've had the opportunity to meet many of the success stories and people who have had to go through their houses one, two or three times, because relapse is often a part of the addiction story.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for all that you do, and I look forward to having a written brief, so that we can get more information on this.
Kaite, I saw you shaking your head and nodding in agreement. I was wondering if you have anything to add to that.
