    Abstract:
    'Imi Ho'ola is a program for those seeking to heal. Since 1973, 'Imi Ho'ola has provided educational opportunities to students from underrepresented populations in medicine and has demonstrated its success as a pathway for Native Hawaiians and other Pacific Islanders into the University of Hawai'i John A. Burns School of Medicine (JABSOM). The program's student-centered, individualized, and team-based approach offers participants the opportunity to develop effective learning and study skills while solidifying students' foundation in the basic sciences and humanities. 'Imi Ho'ola is an educational model that has had a longstanding impact on the diversity within JABSOM and has contributed to the success of indigenous students in medicine.
