This report is the first research report to specifically focus on Filipino survivors of the 2023 Lahaina fires.
A total of 757 Filipino fire survivors were surveyed and interviewed over the course of 16 months for this project. Filipinos represented an estimated 40% of Lahaina’s population —nearly twice the state average—but no research has been published to understand Filipinos’ unique experiences of the fire and recovery needs.
The Comprehensive Report on the Needs and Recovery of FIlipino Survivors of the Lahaina Fires breaks new ground. The report was made possible through support from Hawaiʻi Community Foundation and Organizing Resilience, and was produced by a team of Filipino researchers at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa that included the Hawaiʻi Public Health Institute, Pinerds (a consortium of Hawaiʻi’s Filipino health researchers), and the Hawaiʻi Workers Center.

The summary is available in English, Ilokano and Tagalog - available on the website.
