Mental health struggles can be hard to deal with, and they are more common across Hawaii than many people realize. An estimated 10,000 young people in Hawaii are living with depression. Many Hawaii residents also struggle to get support because they are uninsured or worried about going out of network for their care.
Several statewide organizations can help you find that support. If you or someone close to you is struggling with anxiety, depression, substance use or other mental health concerns, the resources below are a place to start. Most offer free or low-cost, confidential help to Hawaii residents.
