The Ready, Set, Go! (RSG) training, manual and resource CD Rom comprise a comprehensive training toolkit designed to educate youth workers, educators, counselors and other community service agencies on military culture, the deployment cycle, fostering resillience in kids, influence of the media, and building community capacity.  The intent of RSG! training is to increase ordinary citizens' understanding of the unique issues facing military youth and assist them in creating state & local OMK support networks. School personnel, youth - serving agency staff and civic groups may find RSG! training especially beneficial.

The Hawaii OMK team has scheduled the following Ready, Set, Go! Trainings for 2008:

September 17, 2008 Hale Ikena (Fort Shafter)
September 24, 2008 Nehulani (Schofield)
