What's Being Discussed

  • Approval of minutes from two previous joint committee meetings (October 30, 2024 and September 9, 2026).
  • CEO search for the Office of Hawaiian Affairs: The committees will meet in a closed (executive) session to discuss which additional candidates to invite for an initial interview for the permanent position of OHA Chief Executive Officer (CEO) / Ka Pouhana / Administrator. This portion is closed to the public to protect candidate privacy.

Decisions Expected

  • Approval of past meeting minutes from both the open and closed sessions.
  • Possible action on selecting additional CEO candidates to move forward to an initial interview stage — this decision will be made in the private executive session.

Who Should Pay Attention

  • Native Hawaiian beneficiaries of OHA, as this meeting concerns the hiring of the organization's top executive leader.
  • Anyone interested in OHA's leadership and direction, since the CEO plays a central role in how the agency serves its community.
  • Members of the public who wish to provide testimony on any items listed on the agenda.
