GET HELP: Prosecution and the Courts <br />Last year, the Prosecutor's Office implemented a new Elder Abuse Unit focused on (1) preventing abuse <br />through community education and outreach and (2) expediting investigation and prosecution of elder abuse <br />cases through improved agency procedures and inter- <br />agency collaboration. To request a speaker for your <br />group from the Elder Abuse Unit, please call Lexi <br />McKay at 961 -0466. <br />The Prosecutor's Office also has a Victim's Assistance <br />Unit. The counselors in this unit work with crime <br />victims to provide information about the judicial <br />process, the status of the victim's case, notification of <br />offender status, victim compensation and restitution. <br />The Victim's Assistance Unit also provides referrals to <br />various community resources available for crime <br />victims, such as counseling and support services. <br />BIG ISLAND <br />IMPORTANT PHONE NUMBERS <br />12 <br />To make a non- emergency <br />Hawaii County <br />In an Emergency <br />report, call Dispatch, <br />Police Department <br />call 911 <br />935 -3311 <br />1055 Kino`ole St. <br />(Island -wide) <br />961 -8626 <br />Aging Disability & <br />Resource Center <br />Hilo, HT 96720 <br />(Island -wide) <br />Alzheimer's <br />Hilo 443 -7360 <br />Association <br />Kona 238 -0484 <br />Adult Protective <br />1055 Kino`ole St. <br />Hilo 933 -8820 <br />Services <br />Hilo, HI 96720 <br />75 -5995 Kuakini Hwy., Ste 433 <br />Kona 327 -6280 <br />Kailua -Kona, HI 96740 <br />Coordinated Services for <br />1055 Kino'ole St. <br />Hilo 961 -8777 <br />the Elderly <br />Hilo, HI 96720 <br />Kona 323 -4320 <br />DCCA, Regulated <br />Industries Complaints & <br />345 Kekuanaoa St., Suite 12 <br />933 -8846 <br />Office of Consumer <br />Hilo HI 96720 <br />(Island -wide) <br />Protection <br />Hawaii County Office of Aging <br />1055 Kino`ole St. <br />Hilo 961 -8600 <br />Hilo, HT 96720 <br />Kona 323 -4390 <br />Legal Aid, Senior Assistance <br />These numbers reach Legal <br />Hilo 934 -0678 <br />(Free for 60 or older) <br />Aid's Intake Line, open from <br />Legal Aid attorneys who take your <br />9:30 - 11:20 am and <br />initial call may be able to answer <br />simple questions over the phone <br />1:00 - 3:30 pm <br />Kona 329 -8331 <br />Long Term Care Ombudsman <br />250 S.
