OHA Board of Trustees to meet on Maui

KAHULUI (May 10, 2019) – Maui residents this week will have the opportunity to provide feedback to the Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA) at a community forum and a regular meeting of the OHA Board of Trustees, scheduled respectively for Wednesday, May 15, and Thursday, May 16.

The community meeting is specifically designed for OHA officials to listen to the manaʻo of the public and highlight efforts to improve the conditions of Native Hawaiians. The board meeting is intended to conduct regular board business.  Both meetings are open to the public.

The Maui meetings are the first in the OHA Board’s annual series of community and board meetings held throughout the state. Below is a tentative schedule for the neighbor island meetings, with times and location subject to change.
