SEE MOREK2C is helping youth get ready to learn and ready for life.
LEARN MORECONTACT USKeiki to Career Kauai has recently released the 2022 Kauaʻi Youth Report, a snapshot of Kauai’s young people from birth to workforce entry. This edition features a number of new indicators, many focused on the physical, mental, and emotional health of our island youth to ensure we are assessing their overall well-being. It is intended to offer guidance to our community and policymakers seeking to identify areas of common need, and to spark collective action to help our young people succeed.
The Kaua`i Resilience Project is a bold community initiative to build our young people’s ability to overcome adversity and successfully navigate life’s challenges so they can lead enriched, fulfilled and purposeful lives.
There is a quiet crisis among our island youth. 9% of Kaua`i high school students attempted suicide last year. 28% of our young people reported feeling sad or worthless. We want to change that.
The Kekaha Elementary Early Literacy Project is a bold, multi-faceted community initiative designed to help measurably increase students’ reading proficiency over three years. The community is rallying together to support students in three critical environments: at home, in school, and in our community.
At K2C we listen to the community, we look at the data, and we ask: What do our young people need? How can we help? Each partner brings their expertise to the table and together we make progress. Some examples of our success include the Kekaha Early Literacy Project; Career Connections, and the Kaua`i Resilience Project. Contact us to find out more about how your organization can help!
