And I will tell you a little bit of story, like I mentioned a little bit when I started out from Rwanda and most people who know anything about Rwanda, they already know like the 1994 genocide. Obviously that was a big, big issue that impacted a lot of people. And in Africa as a culture, you know, sitting down and talking to somebody is not something that many people do or it's not, not just that many people do it. People don't always. Invest in that rather they deal with their problems physically how they see it is how they deal with it. If they have a lack of money, I'm gonna work if I have this like I'm gonna do that so that that investment isn't always there. So because of the genocide because of all that stuff has happened you. We had a lot of people who were left with PTSD or who are left with all this grief that they couldn't deal with. They didn't know how to deal with because the culture didn't really encourage or I guess and didn't invest in their own mental health. So for a while we had. You know, people who did not do well mentally, who were struggling mentally. So this the Long story short it now it now it's become an they are more aware of the mental health needs of people who are. Either members of the community who have experienced death from those who have passed away from their genocide or people who are just kind of wanted to deal with that.
