The event builds on a previous session held in June. The Imua Maui Community Healing Initiative funds the series through a grant.
“The third anniversary reminds us how much Lahaina has endured and how important it is to continue caring for one another,” organizers said. “Rebuilding Lahaina is not only about restoring homes and businesses. It is also about supporting the physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being of the community.”
