Each step of the ancient Hawaiian house building process, from the selection of the site to the final dedication, required thought, respect, and intention. Rules governed not only the house’s location, but also the method of construction, the arrangement of the mats for sleeping, and the procedure for moving in. Blessings such as long life were expected to result from proper respect and attention to these rules.

HOPE Services Hawaii, Inc. brings this respect, intention and structure to every individual and family that we serve. Like the first corner posts that are placed, we provide basic needs through outreach for a firm foundation on solid ground. As the lashing and cordage bind the beams together, our case management services support each client’s commitment to seeking a better future. And like roof thatching overhead, we provide emergency, transitional, and permanent shelter from the storm.
