HALE HO`OMALU DOMESTIC VIOLENCE PROGRAM - THE DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SHELTER HALE HO`OMALU (THE HOUSE OF PROTECTION) IS THE ONLY PROGRAM ON MOLOKA'I THAT PROVIDES A SAFE SHELTER FOR VICTIMS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. ON AN ANNUAL BASIS, THE SHELTER PROVIDES AN AVERAGE OF 800 BED DAYS FOR WOMEN AND CHILDREN WHO HAVE FLED THEIR HOMES DUE TO VIOLENCE. WOMEN COME TO THE SHELTER IN MANY WAYS: WITH POLICE ESCORTS, HIDING IN A FRIEND'S CAR, AND SOMETIMES EVEN ON FOOT WITH THEIR CHILDREN, RUNNING TO ESCAPE A PHYSICALLY ABUSIVE PARTNER. ONCE THEY REACH THE SHELTER, THEY RECEIVE A SAFE PLACE TO SLEEP, MEALS, COUNSELING, AND 24-HOUR PROTECTION UNDER THE WATCHFUL EYES OF HIGHLY TRAINED AND EXPERIENCED STAFF. HALE HO'OMALU HELPS VICTIMS OBTAIN TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDERS (TRO'S) AGAINST BATTERERS. A STAFF ADVOCATE PREPARES THE LEGAL PAPERWORK NECESSARY TO REQUEST A TRO AND PROCESS THE REQUEST THROUGH FAMILY COURT. IF THE TRO IS GRANTED, THE ADVOCATE ACCOMPANIES THE VICTIM TO SUBSEQUENT COURT HEARINGS AND HELPS THE CLIENT WITH ANY ADDITIONAL COURT PAPERWORK. IN ORDER TO REDUCE THE INCIDENCE OF DOMESTIC ABUSE, HALE HO'OMALU HAS ALSO ESTABLISHED INTERVENTION SERVICES FOR PERPETRATORS THROUGH ITS ALTERNATIVES TO VIOLENCE (ATV) PROGRAM.
