Strategic program design and implementation
Kahuina advances clients' strategic priorities with deep analysis, data-driven insights, pragmatic program designs, and effective implementation practices. Our solutions are responsive to emerging health threats, growing stakeholder or customer demands, and the rapid pace of technological change.

Practice translation, training and learning optimization
Kahuina ensures that best practices are tailored and integrated into local practice settings to raise workforce capabilities and capacities. Our clients benefit from two decades of experience in local, regional, state and national public health practice that informs how we develop and deploy in-service training materials, events and programs, as well as communities of practice.

Community engagement, and partnership or coalition management
Kahuina forms, manage​s, and matures partnerships to help clients pool resources and talents with individuals, groups or organizations across jurisdictional and cultural boundaries. Mr. Ishikawa's solutions enable user-centered design, increase the impact of coalition actions, and build and sustain trusted relationships for greater resiliency to emergencies and disasters.​

Kahuina is a Hawaiian word that means “to bring people together.” It is a name captures the spirit and style with which we serve our clients, as well as the what we do to improve public health and welfare.

We’d like a logo that is flat and clean. It should be a graphic that inspires confidence and helps our current and prospective customers remember us for our agility and ingenuity. It would be great if the logo incorporates, or is reminiscent, of Polynesian cultural elements. We do not want anything that is kitschy.

We are interested in an abstract logo that can be a company brand usable with and without the company name.
