We Help Kids

Children are Hawaii’s most valuable resource. They are our future. Family Programs Hawaii is a unique non-profit agency remaining true to its origins of providing quality care to the children of Hawaii. Our goal is that every child in Hawaii has the opportunity to reach his or her full potential. Our heart represents the many complexities of foster care. The colors symbolize our three areas of service: prevention, transition, and support.
