Honolulu Answers

Have you ever gotten lost on a government website, or been confused about how it's organized?

We have. So we're launching a new website for Honolulu citizens that's simple, clean, and resident-focused.

Honolulu Answers will be as easy to use and accessible as asking a real person a question.

To learn more about the new Honolulu Answers website, watch our video:


What We're Doing

Join us Saturday, July 28th, to rewrite local government.

Be part of the first ever civic write-a-thon. Join us to write simple, easy-to-understand answers to your common questions, such as:

  • Where do I get a camping permit?
  • When is my garbage pick-up?
  • How do I renew my driver's license?

At the workshop, you'll write short answers (1-2 paragraphs) to some of the most common questions from city residents. You don't need to be a writer to contribute. Answers will be non-technical and written as if you were answering a question asked by your neighbor.

We'll provide food, tools to help you write, and expertise from local Honolulu writers. So please join us Saturday, July 28th, to improve Honolulu government! Sign up here.
