The annual Youth Services sign-waving was held during Suicide Prevention Week this week. But with the recent wildfires, the Youth Services team decided to remove the word “suicide” from signs and focus on available help, specifically the 988 Suicide and Crisis Hotline, mental health and “Lahaina Strong.”
Maui Economic Opportunity’s Youth Services participants and staff were among those who volunteered at a holiday food distribution event at Waiola Church in Lahaina on Christmas Eve.
