Often times in desolate lava fields the resilient ‘ohi‘a lehua tree is the first sign of life after a devastating flow. The ‘ohi‘a lehua with its strength, stature and ability to thrive in a variety of climates is symbolic of the work of the Big Island Substance Abuse Council.
Since 1964, BISAC has been inspiring individuals and families to reclaim and enrich their lives in the wake of the ravages of substance abuse. We offer a continuum of
