We have designed a five-part model, called ACCEL™, to create a comprehensive, integrated approach to our service model. ACCEL™ is a culture-based framework that adapts and stands on the shoulders of the work of fellow indigenous researchers, Kanaʻiaupuni and Kawaiʻaeʻa.

Accountability

We use data, both qualitative and quantitative, to hold ourselves and others accountable.

Community

We value the contributions of community—small and large—in the development of our services.

Context

We create learning experiences that start with self-reflection and incorporates group interactions, as appropriate

Education

We make education—teaching and learning—meaningful and relevant.

Language

We acknowledge the importance of recognizing and using language that is understandable by everyone involved.
