The mission of Ka Malu a Waʻahila is to utilize an indigenous-informed lens to foster belonging for all students, faculty and staff at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa to elevate the behavioral health of the lāhui.
Our mission is born from the acknowledgment of historical and intergenerational trauma, to cultivate healing pathways that elevate the behavioral health of the lāhui.
Purpose – Kumu Paʻa
We believe that decolonizing mental health and improving access to culturally safe and responsive services is an act of psychological self-determination and moves us in the direction of collective mauli ola.
