Tutu and Me traveling preschool funding

Maui County

Summary

Federal cuts are closing all four Maui Tutu and Me sites this fall, leaving roughly 200 keiki and their caregivers without the program. The mayor's budget includes $1.2 million — the two-thirds share PIDF still needs for Maui County sites — and parents testified emotionally that the program is their lifeline.
