The Sovereign Councils of the Hawaiian Homelands Assembly

The SCHHA is a state-wide organization founded in 1987 and consists of 28 homestead associations which represent over 30,000 beneficiaries on Hawaiian Home Lands. The SCHHA protects and promotes the interests of beneficiaries of the Hawaiian Homes Commission Act, enacted by congress in 1920, that established a land trust for homesteading and commerce for native Hawaiians.
