The Hawai’i Opioid Prevention and Education (HOPE) grant is designed to provide resources to all rural communities of Hawaii to help decrease substance use disorder. We will do this by sharing information on available resources, trainings, treatment options including free telepsych options, and bring partners together to develop plans to improve the services available locally. We have created these resource listings to help you identify what is available in Kaua’i. Please let us know of any updates (errors, omissions, new programs, etc.) by emailing [email protected].
