Waikiki Health Center received a $50,000 grant from the Office of Hawaiian Affairs that will enable the center to expand its services to kupuna and the native Hawaiian community on the North Shore.

Support will go to two programs: the Ho'ola Like North Shore Primary Care Clinic, which offers traditional Hawaiian healing integrated with Western primary medical care; and the Care-a-Van homeless outreach program. The funds will also enable the center to add new services for seniors in low-income housing.
