Puʻuhonua O Waiʻanae is a village of 200 people living unhoused on the leeward side of Oʻahu. A majority of residents are Native Hawaiians. It is an inspiring community first approach to houselessness that:

  • is self-organized at nearly zero cost to taxpayers

  • Gets people the help they need—medical care, social services, school supplies, food security and permanent housing

  • provides safety, healing, and purpose through a community of aloha
