IHS, The Institute for Human Services, is a 501c3 private non-profit organization. We are Hawaii's most comprehensive human services agency focused exclusively on ending or preventing homelessness.
Each houseless person’s unique story inspires us to action. By working with partners in government, business, and community organizations, we deliver a spectrum of services with urgency, embrace innovation, and advocate for system changes through community education and outreach.
Our mission is to create and offer tailored solutions for those in crisis and nurture homeless people toward greater self-direction and responsibility. Our vision is to one day create a community where homeless people are empowered with hope, dignity, and confidence to quickly access and sustain a safe, decent, and affordable home.
