About Behavioral Health

Behavioral Health is the full range of mental and emotional well-being, from the basics of how one copes with the day-to-day challenges of life, to the treatment of mental illnesses, such as depression, as well as substance use disorder and other addictive behaviors.

At Maui Behavioral Health Resources, we recognize that behavioral health challenges are different for everyone. That is why we have three agencies dedicated to helping local Maui residents, no matter where they are in their life journey.

Our programs serve almost 8,000 Maui residents each year. 

"Before treatment, I thought that I would magically become sober. I realized that you have to put in the effort and be motivated. No matter how many times I relapsed I wanted to be sober again. I feel better that I learned how drugs affect my body. The knowledge helped me quit. I received the support from the staff. My hope for the future is that my family can learn how to support me."
"It's a good thing that I've been sober for a month since I started treatment. I thought I was going to struggle staying clean but I actually made it. The most important thing I learned about myself is believing in myself. If you believe in yourself you can do better; meaning, you can quit. My hope for the future is that I can spend more time with my siblings and get better grades in school."
"Before entering the program, I gave people attitude and I was always tired. I used to feel stuck and bored. I feel like coming to the program was a good thing. I might have started drinking and using again if I didn't join group. My thinking has been more positive and I can have fun without using. I can see clearly now. The most important thing I learned was the facts about drugs and alcohol. The most important thing I learned about myself is that I can get off drugs It takes time and you just got to believe in yourself. My hope for the future is that I can gain trust back from my family and have a good life."

I am very thankful for all of the support

"Once I got too old for foster care, I had many difficulties and didn't know how to live on my own. The MYFS Independent Living Program taught me how to apply for a job, pay my own bills and solve my own problems. I'm going to college now and have clear goals for the future. I am very thankful for all of the support I received from MYFS counselors and plan to help other foster kids in the future."

I was 16 when I joined the program

"My name is Kevin and I was 16 when I joined the program. I had been in and out of foster homes most of my life. I smoked marijuana, drank regularly and ended up with legal problems. When I first got into the program I was resistant to it and couldn't focus during groups. My counselors helped me with my problems and taught me how to have fun without drugs or alcohol. I completed the program not long after I graduated from high school. I am now sober, working full-time and want to volunteer for MYFS to share my story with other kids."

My daughter was so angry

"I don't know what we would have done without MYFS! My daughter was so angry and out of control, we couldn't have her at home. Having her placed for a week at MYFS' Emergency Shelter made all the difference. We had time to think calmly and the staff helped us make a family plan to move forward. My daughter is following through on agreements and is a much happier person."
