Veterans Affairs committee  Yes, sir. We collaborate directly with Los Angeles, and the University of Southern California runs the LA collaborative. They're currently shopping for an integrated technology system, so maybe they'll be using ours soon, but their collaborative is very well developed in terms of how they get their organizations on the same sheet of music.

Veterans Affairs committee  We had to seek seed funding from large institutional foundations at the national scale in order to kind of prove the pilot and show proof of our concepts. We're seeking other local dollars from local foundations here in the greater Houston area now that we have the data to show the positive outcomes.

Veterans Affairs committee  I think that's a great way to leverage the local municipal elected and appointed relationships. Usually cities and counties have a lot of open space, a lot of buildings that are just sitting idle. We actually did that for the Lone Star Veterans Association, one of the programs that I mentioned, as one of the lessons learned from the past.

Veterans Affairs committee  Thank you for having me, sir. In Houston here, obviously we've had a bit of trouble with a hurricane, if you haven't heard, and it's brought up this idea of resilience and what a resilient city would look like. Although we bounced back very quickly in terms of hurricane recovery, and everyone is back to work and everyone is housed, we found that the veteran community was one of the major things that led the resilience of our city in the return to normalcy after the hurricane.
