Recovery

LAHAINA, MAUI – As Maui continues to heal from the Aug. 8, 2023, wildfires, FEMA continues to provide support on-island and remains available to survivors. As the demand for FEMA’s in-person services has diminished over time, FEMA will end in-person staffing at the two public-facing recovery centers on June 18 at the Council for Native Hawaiian Advancement Kākoʻo Maui Relief & Aid Services Center in Central Maui and July 3 at the Lahaina Resource Center in West Maui. There are still many other ways to contact FEMA and wildfire survivors are encouraged to stay in touch.
