“As we have chronic shortages of every type of healthcare worker and service the county should look at encouraging health care training and services on Maui as an intelligent way to diversify our economy.”

Community Quote from Long-Term Planning Recovery Survey

Project Description and Purpose

This project consists of performing a Health Service, Behavioral Health Service and Social Service Gap Analysis and addressing those identified gaps. Maui has faced shortages in healthcare service providers for specialties such as obstetrics, gynecology and pediatrics. This project will identify programs, partners and solutions to increase access to specialized health services.

The gap analysis will build off the ongoing Childcare and Behavioral Health Services Gap Analysis being performed by the University of Hawaiʻi Maui College, whose purpose is to conduct a succinct gap analysis of childcare and behavioral health services for f ire-impacted individuals as part of Hulihia’s Lahaina Revitalization Project. Their analysis aims to identify existing services, assess their adequacy and determine areas of need to inform strategic planning and resource allocation. It will assess the current landscape of childcare and behavioral health services available to fire-impacted individuals in the Lahaina area, identify gaps and deficiencies in existing services based on community needs assessments and provide quantifiable data to Hulihia to be mapped using data visualization tools. Once gaps are identified, this project will work to address them
