The building of this community is done, kïpaepae (Lit., steps for entering a house), standing upon one stepping stone at a time. The evolution of a diverse community that is built upon Hawaiian culture as its root deepens our competencies of responsibilities, relationships, and re-creation. Many hands come together to ensure this timeless way of being with ourselves, one another, and the environment. E komo mai, welcome, become a part of this learning community.
