It has been over a month since the Governor issued the “Stay at Home, Work from Home” Order and I know all of our lives have dramatically changed. Many of our ‘Ohana have been without jobs and those that have been deemed “essential workers” have been carrying the weight of all of us on their shoulders, and while we are entering the phases of re-opening our economy and our communities, our lives are forever changed and it will take a while for us to truly recover. I know many of you have been frustrated and upset while trying to apply for benefits from the State. I cannot make any excuses or give any justifications for delays in resources and answers. Luckily, with the extra support from state employees, the UI call center is now down to a 15 minute wait time. Please know that my staff and I have been working daily to provide you all with as much detailed and accurate information as possible in a timely manner and will continue to do so. In this newsletter you’ll find some resources that will hopefully be helpful on our road to recovery. Please count on my office as a resource as well, and if you have any questions please feel free to call or email. I thank everyone who has been doing their part to comply with the State and County orders.
