Description

Hosted by Lance Chase, this episode of Focus Hawaii features Officer Roland Unciano of the Windward Oʻahu Community Policing Team, who shares his background—from growing up in Waimea, Kauaʻi, to serving in the Air Force during Vietnam, to 24 years with the Honolulu Police Department. He explains the mission and structure of the newly established community policing unit, detailing programs such as Neighborhood Security Watch, Adopt‑a‑Block, Stamp Out Graffiti, Citizen Patrols, CTAP (Community Traffic Awareness Partnership), and CROSS (Community Response on School Security). Through real examples, photos, and video clips, Officer Unciano describes how community partnerships, non‑confrontational reporting, school patrols, sign‑waving traffic campaigns, and neighborhood involvement help reduce vandalism, speeding, graffiti, and other concerns. Emphasizing collaboration, safety, and relationship‑building, he highlights how citizen engagement can strengthen communities and support police efforts across Windward Oʻahu.
