ABOUT MALU I KA ʻULU

The Malu i Ka ʻUlu program is dedicated to promoting mental health and self-healing for Maui County residents affected by the Maui wildfires. Malu i Ka ʻUlu translates to “shaded by the breadfruit tree” in Hawaiian and symbolizes protection, peace, nourishment, and growth. Just as the Pu’uhonua system provided shelter and rejuvenation, we aim to offer a restorative space for individuals to regain their strength and continue their journey with renewed energy and resilience.

It's about rediscovering joy, building new routines, and allowing ourselves to grow from the experiences that have shaped us.Every moment of vulnerability you face is a step toward healing. It’s okay to lean on others, seek support, and be kind to yourself as you navigate this journey. Celebrate the small victories, cherish the memories, and know that it’s possible to find peace and purpose again.Remember, you are not alone. The road to recovery is filled with hope, and there’s light ahead. Be patient with yourself and trust in the process. Your strength and courage in the face of grief are truly inspiring.
