It offers primary care, mental health services, imaging, lab, pharmacy, women’s health, and prevention and wellness programs.  The building received the U.S. Green Building Council LEED Gold Certification.

An “Award of Excellence” is presented to the top project in each category, based on a scoring system. The best of the best, voted by the judges from among all the entries in all of the categories, receives the coveted Build Hawaii “Grand Award.”

Along with the Build Hawaii Awards, another special recognition was given out during the program.
