Kupuna Resources
Have you noticed a new "Kupuna Resources" button on our Homepage?
Our Kupuna have taken care of us always and sometimes they need a little help themselves.
In partnership with other various community partners, resources to our Kupuna are now available from utilities, rent, mortage food, etc...
Report, Report, Report!
In order to keep our neighborhood safe and keep our community a great place to live, residents need to come together and do their part. If you see suspicious activity, an abandoned vehicle or unpermitted structure, please do the necessary steps and report it to NCA and the authorities.

Youth Challenge Academy
At the Hawaii Youth Challenge Academy we focus on training our Cadets to be successful members of society through the use of an Eight Core Component frame work. The Eight Core Components of the intervention model focuses on the holistic development of the Cadet. Deliberate experiential learning and training at the Academy are, therefore, created with these Eight Core Components as their foundation.
Despite what you may have heard, this program is not for troublemakers. Cadets learn the basic live skills to live in today's society.

Kupuna WALMART Grocery Delivery Services
How amazing it this??
The Department of Human Services (DHS) is pleased to share that last week the testing was completed, and Hawaiʻi Walmart stores received approval from the Food and Nutrition Service to proceed..
This program will enable kupuna, those with pre-existing health conditions, and others who would prefer not to go into the store, to pick up their groceries curbside at no cost. Or they can utilize the delivery option for a fee.
