<p class="MsoNormal">Members who happen to be Ho`opono employees will be in a mandatory DHS staff training from 9 to 11 on Monday, so we will miss the meeting for sure. This creates an opportunity for others to step up. Attending this meeting is a great opportunity
to learn about the process and also represent the National Federation of the Blind of Hawaii.
