Residential Youth Services Empowerment (RYSE) has opened a much-needed facility to house young adults who want and need help untangling their lives from addictions to drugs or alcohol.
The Liliha facility, called Apapane, is RYSE’s first youth sober house and will help unsheltered people ages 18 to 24. Potential residents are selected from those who have sought help at RYSE’s Kailua shelter, with two primary criteria: a willingness and desire to stop using substances; a need for shelter.
