KIHEI, Hawaiʻi – For survivors of the Maui wildfires, navigating disaster resources is critical to their recovery. With the wide variety of languages spoken in Hawaiʻi, many survivors require interpreters to access the information they need.

They believe the blessing, or pule, keeps them safe from the dangers they navigate daily.
