In regards to the issue of unattended youth, the recent violence draws the attention of the powers to be (as it should) because the "cash cow" of tourism is threatened, however, there is a much darker issue that is unseen and less attention being drawn to- the sex trafficking of our youth in Waikīkī and surrounding areas. We need to have more funding and support towards proactive groups that provide youth intervention like Adult Friends for Youth, Hoʻola Nā Pua, We are Oceania, etc. These groups also need to get together so they can plan and provide a strategic approach in unattended, at-risk and runaway youth.
