This is a very serious commitment of time and energy on your part as well as ours. H-PEP’s team pours a lot of time and energy into each cohort member and we ask for the same in return. Even more importantly, this is a commitment to yourself, your well-being, and flourishing.

See you at our in-person SPARK Aloha Celebration Retreat! Everyone will come together to celebrate our H-PEP journey and share about their SPARK Plan!
