An extended family from the fire-ravaged town of Lahaina, Hawaii is struggling with logistics and emotions after the historic wildfire destroyed three of their homes.

Lani Moala said that her large family is trying to sort out housing arrangements for the relatives that lost their properties while, at the same time, trying to absorb the emotional shock of the destruction.

Still, she added that despite the difficulties her family is finding strength and support in each other and in the close-knit Lahaina community. Lani said that Lahaina residents are supporting each other through the tragedy and that they have collectively vowed to rebuild.

A group of residents set up a one-stop relief area for residents to get what they need to recover from the devastation. These include water, food, hygiene and medical products as well as mental health assistance. Many Lahaina locals are concerned about leaving the west side of Maui for fear that government restrictions will prevent them from returning.
