E malama ʻoe i ka ʻāina, e malama ka ʻāina ia ʻoe

(Take care of the land, and the land will take care of you)

An innovative initiative designed to address the emotional and psychological aftermath of the 2023 Maui Wildfires. Grounded in Native Hawaiian cultural practices, ʻO.L.E.N.A seeks to nurture holistic healing by reconnecting individuals with the land (ʻāina) and traditional healing practices (lāʻau lapaʻau). Key program components include monthly cultural workshops and quarterly mea kanu (plant) distribution days, facilitated by a team of mahiʻai (caretakers) and supported by local partners. The program's staff and partners are all committed to delivering culturally sensitive mental health services. Curriculum experts and local practitioners will provide culturally specific content for workshops, ensuring relevance and authenticity.

In partnership with Nohona Health, we’re proud to introduce the ʻŌLENA Project, a heartfelt initiative created to address the emotional and psychological impacts of the 2023 Maui wildfires. By blending traditional Hawaiian healing practices with innovative approaches, the ʻŌLENA Project nurtures resilience, creativity, and holistic well-being. Through mental health-focused mālama ʻāina workdays, lāʻau (medicinal plant) distributions, and hands-on cultural workshops, we aim to foster genuine community healing. Our mission is to reconnect individuals to the ʻāina (land), preserve our rich cultural heritage, and strengthen the collective resilience of our Maui ʻohana.

Program Sponsors

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Papa Ola Lōkahi and Maui United Way for their generous support of our program. Their commitment and contributions are instrumental in helping us achieve our goals and make a meaningful impact for our community and those affected by the 2023 Maui Wildfires.
