• Instituting a mechanism,
perhaps under the Bishop
Museum, to collect
information on existing
federal programs in the area
of the arts and humanities
and assisting native Hawaiians
who wish to apply for
these programs.
The Governor should consider
creating, perhaps within an
existing agency or
organization, a group to:
• Act as a clearinghouse for
information on existing
federal programs that can be
of help to native Hawaiians.
The existing Catalog of
Federal Domestic Assistance
can provide an excellent
starting point; and
• Perform a "facilitating" role
by assisting individuals and
groups in identifying
relevant programs, contacting
appropriate officials, and
writing applications and
proposals.
1990 Census that would ensure
comparability between State and
Federal data.
Actions by Federal Agencies
The Commission also recommends that
the heads of all Federal departments
and agencies act to ensure that the
needs and concerns of native
Hawaiians, to the extent identified
and defined in the Commission's
Report, be brought to the attention of
their program administrators; that
these administrators consult officials
in Hawaii for further guidance on
specific programs; and, once this
guidance is received, consider actions
that could be taken to ensure full and
equal access by native Hawaiians to
various assistance programs. Among
those programs that appear to the
Commission to warrant special
attention are the following:
1. In the Department of Education,
guaranteed student loans;
program grants for educationally-
deprived children;
educational opportunity
grants.
During the course of its study,
the Commission found a
diversity of data uses and
collection methods among State
agencies and between State and
Federal agencies, resulting in
data on native Hawaiians that
are not comparable. Therefore,
the Governor should consider
reviewing the use of population
figures and the methodologies
used in data collection on
native Hawaiians to ensure
consistency among State
agencies. Then, the Governor
should make recommendations to
the U.S. Bureau of the Census
