How We Help
When child victims of abuse and their families arrive at the Children's Justice Center of Oʻahu, we prioritize making them feel welcome, safe, and supported. We assist CJC staff by offering refreshments to families during interviews and provide meals if visits run long. We decorate the waiting room thoughtfully to create a comforting, home-like environment that helps everyone feel at ease.
We also support children after they leave our Center to ensure their healing continues. Below are examples of how we assist our keiki in need.
Hope & Healing Project
The Hope & Healing Project brings together all our programs for youth referred by partner professionals, ensuring they have access to essential items, fun activities and games, and vital resources for their well-being and healing.
Comfort Corner
After their interviews at the CJC, children and teens can visit our comfort corner to choose a small item—like a stuffed animal, stickers, or a toy—to take home. This simple act helps restore comfort and a sense of personal ownership.
Foster Care Closet
Our foster care closet stocks donated clothing, quilts, towels, and toiletries. When children enter foster care after their interviews, we prepare them with a bag containing three days’ worth of clothes, a towel, a quilt, and travel-sized toiletries.
