Keiki O Ka `Aina Ho’ohiki Pilina Program is teaching teens 14 to 18 about healthy relationships, with a $100 Amazon gift card as an incentive for completing the course.
The Ho’ohiki Pilina Program (HPP) is an online class on healthy relationships and pregnancy prevention for youth on Oahu ages 14 – 18. Classes start with an orientation on Monday followed by four sessions, Tuesday through Friday. Classes are offered various times throughout the day since teens have very different schedules now that schools are either online or partially in-person.
“The program helps teens develop healthy relationships,” explains Aaron Larson, Operations Coordinator, Ho`ohiki Pilina Program, KOKA. “Unhealthy relationships, dating violence, and risky sexual behaviors are a serious threat to the well-being and futures of many young people.”
Ho`ohiki Pilina utilizes Love Notes, a federally approved curriculum that addresses these issues by building conflict resolution and coping skills for healthy relationships of all kinds: romantic, friendship, family, school, and work.
