Program accomplishments

  • In 2024, First LAP served thirty men. Twenty completed their six-month programs and transitioned to other residences. Sixteen men were fully employed. One was able to parole out of state to Tennessee where his family is. The other four were on disability and able to find residences elsewhere. In May 2024, the Executive Director represented First LAP at a symposium held by Governor Josh Green. Partners of different state agencies were present at the Koolau Ballroom to discuss implementation of TICI (Trauma informed Care initiative). The Office of Wellness and Resilience presented programs on trauma treatment. First LAP has always believed and exercised this belief of healing through the Power of Forgiveness. We have certified 50+ adults to become certified Peer Support Specialist that can carry on this tradition of people with lived experiences mentoring those coming out of prison and/or struggling with alcohol/drug addiction.
