Kūpuna Resources & Support Network | Community Connections

In this Community Connections spotlight, the Aging & Disability Resource Center (ADRC) gears up for the winter season with a wide range of resource navigation and support programs for Kaua‘i’s kupuna, caregivers, and families.

From helping seniors access transportation and meal services, to providing referrals to trusted community partners, to acting as a one-stop information hub for anyone 60+, ADRC proves that empowering kupuna begins with connection, compassion, and clear pathways to care.

✨ Year-round services — with phone and in-person support, district-based outreach, and personalized resource guidance across Kaua‘i.
