Registration & Weekly Evaluations

We are excited about your interest in the Ka ‘Aha program. So that we can help your team track your weekly activities, please take a few minutes to register for the program. Each team member needs to register separately. If there are members who don’t have a computer or have little computer knowledge, please help them register.

Please click on the following link to access the registration page

Each week…

Each week we will ask for your feedback about the program and about activities you’ve been participating in as team members and individually. Click here to enter your information. It may be easier to print out a copy of the weekly evaluation to track your activities throughout the week.

Every Monday morning you will receive an email reminding you to submit your evaluation information online. We will use this to track the activities and the progress your entire team makes throughout the 8 weeks.

By the end of the 8 weeks, we hope the activities you’ve participated in have become almost a habit and that you continue to participate in many intergenerational activities on a regular basis. The more our community works together with all generations, the stronger we become.

Below we have listed the actions listed on the weekly evaluation. To the right of each action is a list of ideas that are included in that action. This list is not complete so if you have creative ideas to add, please share them!
