It takes a Hui to raise a child.
Hui (hoo’ ee) is a Hawaiian term for people working together for a shared purpose.
Family Hui’s shared purpose is healthy families and communities. Family Hui parent/caregiver groups focus on learning about early childhood development and on developing empathy for oneself and one’s children, family, and community.
Family Hui is an evidence- informed and externally evaluated program that honors the wisdom of the shelf and the wisdom of the self.
MISSION & VISION Our mission is to develop sound families, thriving communities, and a more peaceful world. The Family Hui program does this through peer-led parenting groups offering support, encouragement and empowerment for parents and caregivers as they face the joys and challenges of raising children.
PROGRAM PROVIDES • Positive parenting peer groups • An ACEs informed, resilience with trained peer facilitators focused program • Bloom, our participant • A community of support notebook/curriculum • Information about local • Developmental screenings in parenting resources and partnership with local agencies agencies
How Our Program Works
Join a Group: Family Hui works with partner agencies to identify potential leaders and recruits families collaboratively with leaders and partner agencies.
Share and Learn: Families take part in the 12-week peer led, mindful parenting Hui.
Build Community: New members connect with other families and make friends. Participants discuss weekly topics, participate in art activities and share life experiences.
Grow With Your Hui: Many parents continue participating in Family Hui, and some train to become group leaders; participants frequently volunteer to reach out to other families to join a Hui and expand their own network of support.
