Chair Avilés Inquires About New Program Creation
Chair Alexa Avilés asks if any new programs will be created with the baseline funding and the process for community engagement in program design.
Will any new programs be created?
No.
Yeah, we're absolutely looking forward to you know having those conversations in the foreseeable future about you know, but I think the biggest important thing for me has been, you know, we've mentioned meeting with all of our providers.
It was like a week-long marathon meeting of hundreds of providers, specifically to understand not just what the needs are, but like are the programs that we are currently administering having an impact in the communities, and how are we measuring that?
So those conversations for future programming are important for us to have.
It just requires a little bit more community engagement and stakeholder input.
Yeah.
