Thank you for that question and the opportunity to clarify. It is actually part of the story. If you go back and look at the amount of money that we were spending just on substance abuse programming back in 2009, we were spending about $11.7 million. Now, with the approach of the integrated correctional program model combined with the substance abuse programs that we're still offering in the other three regions, we're spending just shy of $23 million. Because the approach with the integrated correctional program model is hitting every offender when they come through the door, we're actually spending more time, energy, and money in delivering programs than we were five years ago.
