This Unit has been highly instrumental in <br /> bringing all agencies, public and private together, to address the domestic violence problems in <br /> Hawaii County. <br /> Domestic violence is a very serious and devastating problem in the lives of our children and <br /> families. It takes a concerted and a comprehensive approach to address domestic violence. <br /> Hawaii County has taken the lead role in coordinating with other community agencies in <br /> combating this deadly disease that has permeated throughout our County. <br /> I urge you and your fellow council members to approve the funding for the Domestic Violence <br /> unit. <br /> Thank you very much for your kind attention and your consideration of my request. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Roy atanabe <br /> Ha 'Branch Administrator <br /> erk <br /> y,3c~ <br /> lni~ "3u~p <br /> AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY AGENCY '~•y~ ~ Presented-F~~ <br /> 1lef.
