Priorities 

Hawaii National Guard Youth Challenge Academy:
To educate, train, and inspire the Cadets so that each graduate is a skilled leader of character committed to the values of Aloha and prepared for a career of professional excellence and service to the State of Hawaii.

Science and Technology Academies Reinforcing Basic Aviation and Space Exploration (STARBASE):
DoD STARBASE is a premier educational program, sponsored by the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Manpower and Reserve Affairs. At DoD STARBASE students participate in challenging “hands-on, minds-on” activities in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM). They interact with military personnel to explore careers and observe STEM applications in the “real world.” 

Hawaii Hazards Awareness and Resilience Program (HHARP):
Prepare communities to be self-reliant before, during, and after natural hazard events, improve their ability to take care of their own needs, and reduce the negative impacts of disasters.
