Today @govhawaii and @govjoshgreen announced that Hawal’i has secured a FEMA housing extension for Maui wildfire survivors through February 2027. I worked directly with the administration to make sure families aren’t left without support while recovery continues.
This approval ensures continued stability for families still recovering from the August 2023 wildfires and aligns with my administration’s commitment to continue state housing support through the same timeframe. Federal and state programs will now run concurrently, providing certainty and continuity for survivors.
Housing is the foundation of recovery. This extension gives Maui’s families the time and support they need as permanent housing continues to come online. @danielle.dreis

Lāhainā ʻOhana Gingerbread Decorating
In December, GEM Hawaiʻi was honored to organize and produce three free community gingerbread decorating events across West Maui—creating safe, joyful, and family-centered spaces for connection during the holiday season.
Thanks to the generous support of Imua Maui Community Healing Initiative, we were able to:
* Serve 300+ community members
* Host events at 3 locations
* Distribute $1,000+ in gift cards and raffle prizes
* Provide every family with a gingerbread house & decorating kit
From the YMCA West Side Resource Center, to a pop-up event at Lāhainā Jodo Mission, to Ka Laʻi Ola housing community—each gathering reinforced belonging, creativity, and collective healing through shared celebration.
Mahalo to our partners, volunteers, and families who made these moments of joy possible. @olamaui @kalaiola @lahainaymca @homeaidhawaii @hawaiiancouncil

简要统计资料
第一阶段：立即响应
我们的 GEM BStrong 团队正在夏威夷毛伊岛为受到野火严重影响的人们提供援助。我们的紧急援助将以BStrong 现金卡的形式提供，这种现金卡可以让幸存者灵活地购买他们最需要的物资。我们还将提供Airbnb 短期住宿援助、长期住房解决方案、重建项目以及承包商工具采购援助，帮助那些房屋在火灾中严重受损或完全被毁的人。我们还将为受灾宠物提供帮助。我们的团队将无限期地在当地工作，确保茂宜岛上的人们能够获得所需的长期支持。
GEM 现在将在新的茂宜岛办事处开展工作，该办事处将为长期住房申请、BStrong 现金援助卡和其他援助提供帮助。
长期住房解决方案
GEM 目前正在为拉海纳大火中流离失所的人们提供长期住房援助。在这项计划中，我们将帮助需要搬入新居的家庭减轻住房费用。我们还将通过 GEM 欢迎回家包为这些家庭提供基本的生活必需品。
