a tour about six months ago, really exquisite office space in terms of openness and the ability of staff to work together. so we are now in the throes, going to be moving medical, cal fresh which we would call the old food stamps program, our information and assistance program, part of our ihhs, together into that building. this will become a public access building for us. we ve always made the opportunity for people to come in and discuss with staff any issues that they might have in the building that we re in, but we believe that this building with the kind of access it has and its visibility will provide more of that and we ll be doing more outreach into the community to let people know that that s where we are. veterans will be going into that building as well. we had hoped that would happen right after the first of the year but it s looking like spring, april or may, and we ll keep you updated on that. also wanted to mention in ihhs, one of the biggest issues there is th
