• Ensure that Hawaii care partners and families receive culturally sensitive education, training, and support materials.
• Enable Hawaii’s caregivers and families to continue to provide care while maintaining their own health and well-being, including through the use of peer mentors, more access to caregiver support groups, affordable transportation options (especially in rural areas), and respite services.
