Kamehameha Schools – Kealapono ʻOhana Engagement (‘OE) team identified 3 stages of ʻohana participation; ʻOHANA INVOLVEMENT, ʻOHANA ENGAGEMENT, and ʻOHANA EMPOWERMENT. Within each stage we identified ʻohana roles, activities, and outcomes. Knowing this allows us to support and honor each kula (school) as they grow their ʻohana participation.
