Mālama Line

The Mālama Line (808-466-8080) is a telephone number that caregivers of Native Hawaiian children can call to learn more about LT's wide range of programs and services.

A warm, professional LT teammate will answer the phone on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday afternoons. Those who call outside this time frame can leave a voicemail and will receive a call back in approximately one business day.

Recent examples of who the Mālama Line has assisted:

• A 10-year-old looking for culturally based after-school activities. LT connected Mom to the LT Youth Development Program in their area;
• Three children dealing with the recent death of their mother. LT connected Dad and the children to social services for grief and loss counseling;
• A parent integrating back into their family and community after incarceration. LT supported this individual through an ‘ohana strengthening group to help establish new relationships with her two children;
• A caregiver with two children, 8 and 10, looking for financial resources. LT helped them to access assistance in their community; and
• A caregiver with two children needing assistance exploring legal status options. LT was able to connect them to resources in their community.
