Hawaii Interagency Council on Homeless

The Hawaii Interagency Council on Homeless coordinates state agency responses to homelessness, aligning housing, health, mental health, substance use, and social service resources across departments. It develops Hawaii's state plan to end homelessness and monitors progress toward reducing unsheltered and chronically homeless populations. The council includes representatives from multiple state departments and coordinates with county governments and community providers.

Homelessness is one of Hawaii's most visible and persistent social challenges, and this council shapes how state resources are deployed to address it. Advocates, service providers, and people with lived experience of homelessness can engage with the council's planning processes.
