Helping Hand - March 27, 2015 complete interview with Healthy Mothers Healthy Babies

Helping Hand is a weekly feature on HPR1 stations statewide and online here. Each Friday afternoon, Helping Hand puts the spotlight on an organization or event that offers assistance to the disabled and other vulnerable folks in the community with All Things Considered Honolulu Host Dave Lawrence. This week we’re learning about Healthy Mothers Healthy Babies Coalition of Hawai‘i. Our guest today is their Executive Director, Lisa Kimura.

According to their website, they are a local nonprofit agency that is part of a national network of organizations and individuals committed to improving Hawai‘i’s maternal, child and family health through collaborative efforts in public education, advocacy and partner development, with a focus on those without the resources many others enjoy, and who face challenges making these folks more vulnerable.
