The State of Hawaiʻi and Maui County have launched the Maui Disaster Support Call Center. The center, which can be reached at 808-727-1550, provides a central assistance hub for community members affected by the Maui wildfires.

The call center’s services will evolve with the changing needs of the community, offering real-time information on feeding operations, social services, state-run housing options and others. The information will be updated daily to reflect the current state of the recovery and available resources.

Community members seeking direct assistance also are encouraged to contact:

  • The Federal Emergency Management Agency at 800-621-3362 for federal disaster assistance
  • The American Red Cross at 800 733-2767 for information about shelter, locating survivors, and other non-government support services
  • The Hawaiʻi State Department of Health hotline for non-emergency medical and mental health needs for survivors, available at 833-833-3431 or 808-586-4468, Monday through Friday from 7:45 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. HST.

As Hawaiʻi steps forward with a community-based, informed approach to disaster recovery, the state will continue to prioritize the resilience of West Maui. Survivors can contact the support line between 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. HST daily at 808-727-1550.
