View series featureOur foundation
A mission shaped by what Hawaiʻi’s children actually need.
Mission
Committed to prevention and providing care for exploited children.
"Hoʻōla Nā Pua - New Life for Our Children."
Founded to shine a light on the dark criminal enterprise of child sex trafficking, HNP places the health and healing of Hawaiʻi’s youth at the center of its mission. The name says it all: new life, for our children.
Vision
A community where every child is safe and empowered to embrace a bright future.
That vision is not passive. It requires prevention in schools, intervention for those at risk, licensed treatment for those already harmed, and the long arc of mentorship and community that recovery actually demands.
It also requires a community that sees exploitation clearly, not as something that happens elsewhere, but as a challenge Hawaiʻi must confront together.
