Residents of Kaua‘i looking to have their voices heard in the legislative sphere are in luck, as the Kaua‘i Committee on the Status of Women (KCSW) teams up with the Public Access Room (PAR) to provide a learning opportunity tailored for empowering local engagement. The collaborative effort will see a virtual workshop conducted on November 20 from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m., focusing on the ways one can effectively navigate and contribute to Hawai‘i’s law-making process.
According to a press release
, the event is designed to be accessible, offering guidance at no cost to those interested.
Overseeing the session is none other than Andrea “Andy” Langhurst, Public Access Coordinator for the PAR at the Hawai‘i State Capitol. Langhurst, with more than 15 years of seasoned experience in both corporate and academic libraries, is reportedly set to provide a wealth of insights into accessing public resources and comprehending the legislative procedures. Her background positions her to guide participants to more effectively make their participation count.
The organizers have also offered an alternative for those who prefer a face-to-face experience, with a live broadcast of the virtual presentation scheduled at the Office of Boards and Commissions conference room, 4444 Rice Street, Suite 300, in Līhu‘e. Given that in-person seating is limited, a prompt RSVP by emailing
