WHEREAS,the Lokahi Treatment Center is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization whose
mission is to provide the highest quality mental health and substance abuse treatment services that
are culturally appropriate to Hawai`i Island adults, adolescents, and children; and

recognized as health issues, and where stigma and other barriers to recovery are eliminated; and
WHEREAS, substance abuse and mental health conditions, "co-occurring disorders", often
persist for long periods of time without proper diagnosis due to the high degree of complexity of
symptoms, as well as observed severity; and

the potential for long-term recovery and that the best treatment for dual diagnosis is an integrated
approach; and

supplies for its Co-occurring Disorder Program that will be used to address substance abuse and
mental health conditions; and
