amendments with the same period of the contract and grant contract that you are coming back for a grantincrease in this case is concerning always because we know that also means no matter what the program is, you are overspending and you are exceeding your spending in a dollar amount but in this case it's a very challenging time because of the pandemic and the needs have increased significantly as i'm learning, and i think the cost of doing business, the cost has significantly increased due to inflation. this is a harsh reality that we have to face. i think the additional alarming situation for me when we think about these grants is the fact that calfresh is coming, the emergency allotment is coming to an end, and with that, it means that at least from what we learned from director trent and from your memo is telling us that calfresh, households that have calfresh can lose any where from $95 and $517 per month. that's huge, i think. so does that actually mean that these programs will see also increase in fees if they lose household benefits significantly. with that said, i'm very suppor
