From Our Ohana

“My life has been impacted for the better. It's brought me and my two brothers a lot closer together; it's given us another thing to have in common (and) a bigger end goal to shoot for. I'm happy I became a part of the program. My only regret is that I didn't start sooner!”

“I always wanted to have a part in building something, (to) look at a big building and say, 'I did some of that.' My parents wanted me to be a doctor or lawyer, but I had different plans for myself. I chose carpentry because it was a good chance to work with my hands. ”

“I was taking carpentry classes at HCC but I decided to do something new so I applied to the millwright program. I like that I can learn a trade and earn a good living wage. It's mainly a male-dominated field, but women should know they can do a trade.”
