County Publishes a Handy Guide to Services amid the Pandemic
The County of Hawai‘i has published a handy guide to services to help the community amid the COVID-19 pandemic, and announced that a new COVID-19 call center will go live on Friday, April 24 to further assist.
The trifold brochure, A Guide for Our Community, was developed to provide information of what programs are available, including financial assistance, food assistance, medical assistance, help for seniors, and other resources. Copies of the brochure are being distributed islandwide, with an initial press run of 5,000 copies.
The new call center, manned by County workers, will be serving the public Monday through Friday, 7:45 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. To get help, please call the Call Center at
961-8665.
“This is a difficult time for so many in our community, and we all need help at times,” the brochure introduction said. “The Call Center will be serving anyone who needs extra assistance by taking your contact information and basic request, and then following up with the appropriate service provider.”
