WHO WE ARE
Ho’ōla Nā Pua (New Life for Our Children) was founded to shine light on the dark criminal enterprise of sex trafficking, placing the health of Hawaii’s youth at the center of our mission and vision for our community.
We are committed to the prevention of sex trafficking and providing care for children who have been exploited. Ho’ōla Nā Pua (HNP) is dedicated to creating a community where children are safe and have the ability to embrace their bright futures. Today, not only does HNP offer integrated programming that reaches over thousands of youth and community members and stakeholders across the state of Hawaii annually, but it is considered a national partner and a rising standard in the global effort to stop sex trafficking permanently.
Ho’ōla Nā Pua’s why
At Hoʻōla Nā Pua, we believe in the power of stories to inspire change and bring awareness to the critical issue of child sex trafficking and exploitation. Each survivor’s journey is unique and powerful, and their resilience fuels our mission.
