FPH is a growing vibrant social service agency providing statewide services to almost 4,000 children and families involved in the child welfare system.

We have wonderful news to share! Family Programs Hawaii has been selected as a 2026 Angels in Adoption honoree by the Congressional Coalition on Adoption Institute.

The Angels in Adoption Program recognizes individuals and organizations that have made and continue to make extraordinary contributions in adoption, permanency, and child welfare. We are grateful to Senator Mazie Hirono for recommending Family Programs Hawaii for this national recognition.

For more than two decades, our staff and community partners have worked alongside children, youth, families, and resource caregivers across Hawaiʻi. This honor reflects that history of commitment and the shared work required to help families experience safety, healing, and lasting connection.

We are proud to represent Hawaiʻi among the 2026 honorees. Mahalo nui to everyone who has been part of this work.

A big mahalo to everyone who helped make this year’s Camp Connections such a meaningful experience for our sibling groups!

Project Visitation campers enjoyed a fun-filled weekend at Camp Mokuleia, creating lasting memories with brothers and sisters they are separated from due to foster care. From beach adventures and basketball to gaga ball, campfire s’mores, crab hunting, games, and crafting picture frames for their sibling photos, every activity celebrated the joy of being together.

One camper shared:
“The best part about camp was spending time with my friends and my brother!”

Thank you to everyone who made these special moments possible. ❤️

Yesterday, we were honored to be a part of hosting the 20th Annual ‘Ohana is Forever conference, themed “Seeing the Path Ahead with 20/20 Vision”. Amongst the learning and fun activities, the best part is always hearing youth in foster care and those with lived experience share their mana’o. Melody Jay, who was formerly in foster care and also a former employee at FPH, had great insight to share!
