Each year, APA-HI recognizes students of the Department of Urban and Regional Planning for their achievement of high grades and superior performance in specific projects and assignments. As our island communities and our profession continue grapple with COVID-19 response and recovery, supporting education of future planning colleagues is as important as ever. We are again hoping to raise $2,000 to award to a current student(s) or to help recruit a deserving applicant(s) to the program. Preference is given to students who intend to pursue a planning career in Hawai‘i.
