Research & Statistics Office

The Research and Statistics Office within the Hawaii Department of Health collects, analyzes, and publishes vital statistics and health data for the state, including birth, death, marriage, and divorce records as well as disease surveillance and health survey data. The office produces reports and datasets used by policymakers, researchers, and the public to understand health trends and inform evidence-based decision-making. It also maintains Hawaii's vital records system and processes requests for official documents.

The health data this office produces drives decisions about where public health resources are directed and which diseases or conditions receive priority attention in Hawaii. Residents can request vital records through this office and access public health data to better understand the health of their communities.
