Research Season is open. We are listening and learning before we build.

Ola Compass is gathering insights through our community survey and seeking guidance from professionals in Hawaiʻi and across the United States. By listening to both lived experiences and professional perspectives, we’re working to better understand the challenges, needs, and gaps in acquired brain injury care—and learn what meaningful support should look like.

Every story, insight, and perspective shared with us matters, and we’re deeply grateful to everyone who chooses to be part of this process.

We’re giving this work the time and attention it deserves. Instead of rushing to meet a deadline, we’re making space to listen closely, learn thoughtfully, and allow what we hear to guide what comes next.

These voices will help shape Ola Compass and ensure that what we create is compassionate, meaningful, and grounded in the real needs of the people and families we are here to support. We’ll move forward with care and intention—because meaningful support takes time, and it should always begin with listening.
