<br /> 8. Court-®rdered Courlse9ing and N9ediation Services
<br /> While counseling and mediation services may result from self-referral, these services are commonly prompted by
<br /> the recommendation of the judiciary or, in some cases, prosecutor's offices. In the case of men's batterers'
<br /> groups run by Bay Cli~^ac in East IIawaii and Puna, it is distressing to note that the state judicial system is making
<br /> referrals for services without providing commensurate funding. We do support the critical work of Bay Clinic
<br /> counselors, as well as the work of Big Island Mediation Services based in Waimea. However, a grant to the
<br /> YMCA's mediation program, with its emphasis on youth-not real cases-seems to go beyond the scope of
<br /> services for which county funding is appropriate. Broadly, this is an area where the state judicial system, which
<br /> profits from resolution: of cases out of court, should step up to the plate with resources to support alternative
<br /> dispute resolution.
