Community. Activities. Lifestyle.
The mission of Hale Hau’oli Hawai’i is to promote positive aging through community education programs, adult day care options, and caregiver support. We are a non-profit organization serving the needs of aging seniors and their caregivers.
Hale Hau’oli Hawai’i’s vision is to provide services for the elderly and their caregivers and to act as a resource and referral partner for them.
As the population in Hawaii ages, there is a significant need to provide support services to the elderly and disabled and their caregivers. Census data shows that 16.5% of Hawaii’s population of over 1.4 million is over the age of 65, totaling over 236,000 individuals. One report shows that most families struggle to cover the out-of-pocket costs of long-term care. According to a 2017 report by Genworth Financial, Inc., in Hawaii, the average monthly cost of a Homemaker Health Aide is $4,957 per month, adult day care is $1,650, assisted living is $4,750, and nursing home care is $13,216. Because the culture in Hawaii is to have our seniors age in place, and most caregivers have to continue to work outside of the home, adult day care is the most economical care option for the Kupuna.Alzheimer’s Foundation of America (alzfdn) is a funder and partner of Hale Hau`oli Hawai`i.
