I think they should screen people before they leave the airport. Again, if they have no accommodations, or a place to stay temporarily, then you got to send them back because they will eventually be a parasite on the state.
I would love for this program to exsit now and for the future people who come to Hawaii and get stuck unable to go home. It’s a dream to leave in Hawaii and I’m one of those who is stick here living in homeless and hating life.
I lived in Maui when there was only one visible homeless person. Since she was from Hawaii she would frequently be send to a hospital. Another showed up from the mainland and he was sent back within a week. This was in the mid 70’s. It only got slightly worse until the late 80’s. Today it’s become too much to handle.
Where will homeless Kanaka Maioli be sent?
The people of Hawaii are now watching our children being left with no choice but to move away from Hawaii, forever leaving Hawaii due to the high costs of living here. It is really sad to see it. There are now more native Hawaiians living away from Hawaii than there are left in the islands. Gentrification. That’s what it’s called. We need a program that can return Hawaii families to Hawaii.They too deserve to be able to connect with their roots and be close to their ancestors and ancestral lands . Mahalo
I personally know someone who was sent here by New York. I personally paid for his ticket back when he found himself living behind Home Depot in Kapolei..and now he’s back courtesy of Colorado. However he got his act together and is not homeless currently. However he does have multiple mainland warrants. So there’s that.
