If the Member wants to know if we have a separate new initiative program set aside for aftercare, that’s not here. I think the Member could take comfort in what I’ve been saying, which is that I am following the mandate given to us by the Caucus on the need for the aftercare programming in the spectrum of treatment programming. We are revising…. I’ve said many times that we’re looking at the job descriptions, duties and activities of mental health addictions specialists as well as community wellness workers. We’re going to look at all 67 positions, look at the community profile. We are committed to working on how we could revise their job descriptions and their interactions with each other to make sure we optimize the work they do to take care of the people who are in need of service — aftercare most obviously being the important part of that.
