The majority of Parent Center staff and board are parents of children with disabilities, so they are able to bring personal experience and expertise when working with families.

We fulfill our mission by communicating the vital importance of education, advocating for literacy, supporting parents as their keiki’s first and best teacher, and empowering families to undertake leadership roles in their communities. All of this is done within the context of Hawaiian language, traditions and values.
Mālama Line - LT has opened a new "Malama Line" to provide caregivers of Native Hawaiian children with a simple, convenient way to learn about our statewide services.

From there, they will determine eligibility, explore opportunities they can offer, and connect you to appropriate referrals.
