Our programs

Think Big. Act Bigger.

HAWAIIAN ARTS

Our Hawaiian Arts Program awakens and strengthens mentee connections to Hawaiian culture. The program is rooted in values of mālama ʻāina, wherein youth work with and experience ʻāina and places of healing, developing and deepening a sense of self and place.

ART THERAPY

Our Art Therapy Program is a key program in releasing trauma and encouraging emotional healing. Using the art-making process and with support from our art therapists, foster children and youth learn how to explore feelings, increase self-awareness, and cope with life’s challenges.

LIFE SKILLS

Our Life Skills Program provides foster children and at-promise youth with a wide variety of life skills not taught in the public school system.

ABUSE PREVENTION AND DIVERSITY TRAINING

Our Abuse Prevention & Diversity Training Program helps foster children and youth understand the origins and impacts of trauma, and learn skills to heal from this trauma.

GROUP & INDIVIDUAL THERAPY

Our Group & Individual Therapy Program addresses many of the behavioral outcomes present in children and youth experiencing trauma, identifying the root cause of problem behaviors rather than just treating symptoms.
