From the FM Kirby Foundation's perspective, Justin, what drew you to Alice as a focus area, and how does understanding Alice data change the way a funder thinks about where and how to fund?

As I mentioned, with our home here in Morris County, while I was not around when we first considered Alice as something to support, I have to guess that Again, it was something that spoke to something our grantees at that time were very much feeling.

I mentioned John being at the community soup kitchen right here in Morristown.
12:38
Clearly, the lines there told him that Alice was very real and even below the poverty level.
12:47
So it kind of cut against that idea of Morris County being a place where everyone's just doing great.
12:52
But in fact, there were a lot of people working really hard just to try to make it to the next paycheck and pay the next bill.
12:59
It certainly accorded with the grantees that we've been supporting for decades.
