LIMITED SEATING AVAILABLE - CAPACITY SET AT 200 REGISTRANTS

Conference Objectives:

 1.    Creating Organizational Connectivity

Participants identify the organizational connections and individual partnerships that must be established before disaster strikes.

 2.     Establishing the Baseline

 What are the Gaps? Overall system deficiencies

 What are the Gives? What your organization has to offer

 What are the Gets? What your organization needs to be of meaningful assistance

 3.     Identifying Core Leaders

To achieve the goal of a comprehensive recovery plan for O'ahu, requires an ongoing effort that     may take several years. The core leaders will take this baseline information and determine the next steps, including planning for succession of leadership among youth groups.
