About Neighborhood Place of Puna

Neighborhood Place of Puna is a non-profit organization dedicated to assisting families and youth on Hawaiʻi Island with accessing the necessary tools and resources they need to thrive; to create a safe, stable, and nurturing community. E mālama pono kākou! Our programs: 🌱 Neighborhood Place Resource Center - Hilo 🌱 Neighborhood Place Resource Center - Keaʻau 🌱 Family and Youth Outreach 🌱Mobile Family Resource Center 🌱 Hale ʻIki Family Assessment Center – Emergency Shelter The Neighborhood Place Resource Centers in Hilo and Keaʻau are welcoming places where families and youth in East Hawaiʻi can turn for support, connection, and guidance. We serve families with young children and young adults ages 14–25 across our community. Whether you’re looking for parenting support, family strengthening services, youth connection, help preventing a housing crisis, or access to community resources, we are here for you. If you’re experiencing homelessness or housing instability, we are here to support you every step of the way. The Family & Youth Street Outreach Program serves unsheltered families with minor children and unaccompanied youth ages 14–25 in East Hawaiʻi. Our mission is to engage quickly, build trust consistently, and connect families and youth to the services that lead to safe, stable housing. The Mobile Family Resource Center (MFRC) program provides essential support services to families in underserved communities. The MFRC van will visit neighborhoods, schools, and community hubs to bring accessible, free, and confidential services to families with minor children. At Hale ʻIki, our Family Assessment Center, we provide short-term emergency shelter and housing navigation to support families on their path to stability. Our ultimate goal is not only to meet immediate needs, but to empower every person we serve to build a better future — for themselves, their families, and our island community.
