Aloha,
The State of Hawai'i Commission to Promote and Advance Civic Education is pleased to announce the inaugural Hilo Law & Justice Academy from October 8, 2024 to October 10, 2024 (during fall break for public schools).

The Academy is free of charge, but space is limited.
Applications are now open and will be accepted through August 30, 2024. The flyer with more details is attached to this email. Please feel free to distribute widely to your contacts and encourage high school students to apply.
