Hale Kipa, a Hawaii nonprofit organization that specializes in working with at-risk youth and their families, held a blessing Monday for its planned West Oahu campus.

The campus, located on 4.26 acres along Old Fort Weaver Road in Ewa, will serve as the agency’s headquarters. This location will consolidate Hale Kipa’s programs and operations to improve service quality, reduce costs and build a sense of place in West Oahu. It will be completed late next year.
