Our Mission & Why: Ho‘ōla Nā Pua is committed to the prevention of child sex trafficking and the restoration of youth who have been exploited. Through advocacy, education, direct services, and residential care, we empower survivors, elevate awareness, and cultivate a community committed to justice and healing. Why we do what we do? Because every child deserves a life filled with hope, dignity, and the freedom to dream.
Because sex trafficking is a hidden crisis happening in our own communities, and the children caught in its grip deserve to be seen, heard, and healed. Because silence allows exploitation to grow, and awareness is the first step to action. Because healing is possible when survivors are met with compassion, specialized care, and unwavering belief in their worth.
Because we believe in a future where no child is for sale. At Ho‘ōla Nā Pua, we stand in the gap, shining a light into the darkest places, walking beside survivors on their journey to restoration, and building a world where our children are protected, cherished, and free.
