KEY Project in Kahalu'u has reorganized its administration, adding positions and shuffling responsibilities.

Sen. Bob Nakata, who was executive director, has become president of the organization, responsible primarily for raising money.

Kili Kono, who was program director, is chief executive officer, responsible for administration, programs and fiscal management.

Kono, 52, has been with KEY for a year. Before that, she ran programs for single mothers in Kalihi. She also worked with Hawaiian students at the John A. Burns School of Medicine, and taught reading and was a counselor to Hawaiian students at Kapi'olani Community College.

She also started a preschool and ran a small business tutoring children in rural areas.
