Arts & Culture

Hawaii is rich with culture and we need to find the appropriate ways to be sure we continue to cultivate that for generations to come.

The Data

The CHANGE framework is a curated set of statewide data that begins to identify the gaps where help in our community is needed, opportunities where help will do the most good, and areas where sustainable data need to be gathered. By working from a common set of sustainable data, our community can create shared goals and consistently and reliably track the progress of our collective efforts over time.
