We did surveys with our customers, about 150. We also do focus groups, and we did a survey of other nonprofit organizations that serve lowincome people. Damian we dowhile you talk, we do have some video of your agency and the folks you help there. Im sorry, go ahead. Rachel so, we do a lot of direct services, but we also do community organizing. And so, the results of our research showed that one of the big issues facing lowincome people is being able to pay high rents that we all kind of deal with here in santa clara county, especially when you have rather low wages. And so, one of the ways that we try to combat that is that we understand thats an issue about housing policy, and what kinds of housing get built, about how we protect renters, about how we fund Affordable Housing.

Under the very best circumstances that is one responder per 150 citizens. We tend to lack on the focus of how how do we empower the people to care for them themselves and it goes beyond Public Service announcements. An excellent example in my mind is the external bilbray the defibrillator. There needed to be a cardiologist and the full that the full resources of an emergency room to provide the care. As a direct result of technology and research, we lowered the barrier to entry where quite frankly if youre bright enough to understand 30 of the 40 different languages and operate a fire extinguisher you can defibrillator somebody.
