Systems are not built in silos but rather across sectors and industries, through collaborative and rich conversations and shared decision making. This report reflects the heart and hard work of everyone who contributes to meaningful solutions for Hawai‘i's youngest keiki.
Twice a year we gather updates on the many efforts going on across the ECAS Network. This publication summarizes key efforts in the context of Systems Change. Through the concerted effort of a broad range of government and non-government actors operating across the early childhood landscape, Hawai‘i builds momentum for positive change in the systems that support young keiki and their ‘ohana.
