Hoʻoikaika Cares: Healing the Healers

We are so happy to announce Ho’oikaika Cares-Healing the Healers monthly sessions for this year! Co-facilitated by Michele Navarro Ishiki of MNI Counseling and Heidi Allencastre, Community Engagement Specialist with Piha Wellness and Healing, activities include time to connect; creative, calming self-care; and lunch.

This is a safe, supportive space for providers to decompress and focus on their mental health and wellness. As we all know, self-care is extremely important but with short staffing, high caseloads, and everything that Maui families are experiencing right now, providers don’t always prioritize their self-care. We encourage all directors and supervisors to allow staff to attend these sessions on paid time.

Remaining sessions in 2025 (9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.)

• Tuesday, October 21
• Tuesday, November 18
• Wednesday, December 17

Each session is unique and restorative. Light snacks and beverages will be provided. Register today for one or all three sessions.
