Thanks Jonathan,

It looks like having some very skilled people give their time to have
conversations with struggling individuals, i.e., if I can find like 10-15
people (I am arching out into various ecosystems) who are open to this, and
with skill in doing such work, then we can coordinate a caregiving safety
net able to catch folks spiraling down into distress. We may also be able
to innovate with zoom based group modalities. At least that is my thinking
at this point...
