Justice & Public Safety

Justice and public safety in Hawaii span county police departments, fire departments, courts, and corrections oversight. The Honolulu Police Commission and its county counterparts provide civilian oversight of law enforcement, setting policy on use of force, discipline, and hiring. The Correctional Systems Oversight Commission monitors prison conditions and reentry programs. The Civil Rights Commission investigates discrimination complaints. Decisions about staffing levels, community policing, criminal justice reform, and reentry support are made in public forums where residents can shape how their communities are protected and how the justice system serves everyone.
