Partners In Care is a membership organization of homeless services providers, other professionals, units of local and state government, service utilizers, and other community representatives located in Hawai'i. We are a coordinating body that develops recommendations for programs and services to fill gaps in the Continuum of Care on O'ahu and provides direction in response to HUD's Continuum of Care annual competition for homeless assistance funds. We also assist in implementing new or expanded programs while preserving effective existing programs.
