What up Leeward! Let's Dive Deep Podcast

In Part One, we discussed the mental health resources and options that you have available at NO COST to you as a Leeward Student. Part Two is about erasing the stigma of getting mental health treatment like therapy and counseling. If you have ever been curious about seeking counseling, this is the podcast for you! Lori Lum and Audre Duque discuss all the questions that you've wanted answered about treatments like therapy. This discussion is with Leeward's Mental Health Professional SUPERTEAM, Lori Lum and Audrey Duque.

If you are interested in seeking treatment, be sure to check our part one, where we guided you through the process of booking a counseling appointment, via STAR. It is just as simple as looking for classes, to make an appointment that focuses on YOU and your well-being. Thanks for listening and have a great day!

Free and Confidential mental health services are available to Leeward CC students. Online and Face-to-Face appointments are available Monday – Friday.

Join Student Lifer, Alex, as we talk to Nicole and Kenisha about Leeward Hui Ohana This resource is for student parents at Leeward Community College. They offer tons of helpful goodies and programs for those with keiki.

Leeward Hui ‘Ohana is a support resource for student parents and family caregivers as they pursue higher education at Leeward CC. 

This program recognizes and respects the challenge of attending college while caring for family (and sometimes balancing a job); therefore, they aim to increase the visibility of student parent needs and available resources on campus.

Please join Leeward Student Life while we talk with Kumu Momi and the Ku'uana at the Kipuka Native Hawaiian Center. We'll learn about the origins of the center, the opportunities they provide, and the (sometimes, delicious) benefits of simply stopping by the center.

The mission of the Native Hawaiian Center at Puʻuloa is to provide a trusted Kīpuka, where students learn and cultivate a sense of belonging rooted in Aloha ʻĀina.

Our Kīpuka is a respite from the storm. A place that over time and given the right conditions gradually permeates its stagnant surroundings igniting it with vitality. Out of something that has come to symbolize a void, something entirely lacking vibrancy–emerges the life-giving sanctuary that is Kīpuka.

Everywhere in Puʻuloa is the trail of Kaʻahupāhau. Said of a person who goes everywhere, looking, peering, seeing all, or of a person familiar with every nook and corner of a place. Kaʻahupāhau is the shark goddess of Puʻuloa (Pearl Harbor) who guarded the people from being molested by sharks. She moved about, constantly watching.
