Okay, let’s break it down for you. We’re about empowerment. We’re about change. And we are about a healthy, smoke free generation. We are the future and we don’t want half of our generation to die from a smoke filled lie.
the WHOLE TRUTH
and NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH
…so what’s it to ya?!
REAL
was started in 2000 with a group of about 15 youth from around Hawaii. All shared a common value; the tobacco industry’s manipulation of our generation must be exposed and stopped! And so we got to work building a program for our generation, by our generation.
In 2001, REAL received a grant made up of Tobacco Settlement dollars from the state Department of Health and Tobacco Settlement Trust Advisory Board. They believe in our mission and helped us get on our feet with enough money to get our movement started.
REAL Headquarters is located at the Cancer Research Center of Hawaii on the University of Hawaii, Manoa.

The goal of the Mary Jane Host Home Program is to provide you with a safe home, offer information on how to stay healthy and happy during your pregnancy, and get you and your baby off to a good start.
At a temporary Host Home you will be able to stay with a caring family beginning any time during your pregnancy and up to four months after giving birth if you keep the baby or six weeks if you make the choice of adoption.
The father of the baby is important too. He can be included in the family planning if all parties agree. The Mary Jane Program can provide counseling, support and preparation to everyone involved or just for you.
