Ke Ala Hoku (the Star Path), is a program geared toward joining the faith-based community, the judiciary, and the Kaua’i Community at large to become proactive in combating the insidious drug problem on Kaua’i. The Ke Ala Hoku programs intent is to educate and train community members to become Navigators (mentors) to adult drug offenders returning to the Kaua’i community following substance abuse treatment or imprisonment, due to illegal substance use.

The Church of the Pacific has offered it's office facilities in support of this effort. Rebekah currently has five homes for men and women. This project is fragil and needs our support, because it will help people who have been in trouble return to a good live and become substantial citizens.
