Community Healing and Mental Wellness

Healing is more than recovery. It is about reconnecting to who we are, where we come from, and where we are going together.

The trauma from the August 8, 2023 wildfire runs deep. Lahaina Strong offers spaces for emotional, spiritual, and cultural healing that are grounded in community resilience and led by people who lived through the same fire.

We connect survivors with culturally grounded mental wellness programs, peer support networks, and healing spaces rooted in aloha. Our work in this space is led by Courtney Lazo, who brings both lived experience as a fire survivor and a deep commitment to ensuring no one in our community heals alone.

From cultural ceremonies and community gatherings to one-on-one support and referrals, we walk alongside our people through every stage of the healing process.
