The Children with Special Health Needs Program (CSHNP) in Makaweli, HI, is dedicated to ensuring that all children and youth from ages 0 to 21 with chronic medical conditions achieve their fullest potential in health, growth, and development. We offer comprehensive support for families navigating the complexities of specialized medical care for long-term health issues. Our services include information and referral, service coordination for medical specialty care, and nutrition support, along with specialized services for hearing and vision. We also facilitate transition planning to adult health care and provide access to neurology, cardiac, and nutrition clinics on the Neighbor Islands. In addition, CSHNP offers limited financial assistance for families who qualify, covering medical office visits, lab tests, X-rays, prescription medications, and more. For children requiring medical services on other islands, we assist with travel and lodging expenses. Families and health care providers are encouraged to reach out to learn more or to apply for support.
