The Children with Special Health Needs Program (CSHNP) in Lihue, HI, is dedicated to ensuring that all children and youth aged 0-21 years with chronic medical conditions achieve their fullest potential in health and development. We understand the unique challenges faced by families of children with long-term health needs, and our mission is to provide comprehensive support through a range of vital services. CSHNP offers information and referral resources, service coordination for specialized medical care, nutrition support, vision and hearing services, and transition planning to adult healthcare. Additionally, we facilitate access to essential medical specialist visits, laboratory tests, and prescription medications, and we provide limited financial assistance for specialty care to families who meet income guidelines. Our goal is to improve the lives of children with special healthcare needs, ensuring they receive the necessary care, including travel and lodging assistance for those on Neighbor Islands. Healthcare providers can submit a Referral for Service, and families are encouraged to contact us for assistance.
