Meet supportive people like you who care. If you're passionate about helping others, Code for Hawaii is perfect to support you.
Make a difference contributing to Hawaiian social impact projects. Leverage technology to help organizations solve problems.
Gain experience as a beginner, pay it forward as a mentor. We're part of solving the big picture - a Code for America Brigade.
We start each meeting with a land acknowledgement, Code for Americaʻs Code of Conduct, and a full round of introductions including your name, where you are calling from and a question of the day.
We will share key milestones, updates, and blockers on projects as well as relevant news from Code for America including participating in national events such as Brigade Congress, National Day of Civic Hacking, and Code for America Summit. We also occasionally welcome guests and partners to share what they are working on so we can continue to learn about how to have impact in Hawaii.
Each month the brigade selects a "Focus Project" that we all work on together as a brigade. We also work on developing several other projects in the "background" through our "Discovery Track". Each meetup we create breakout rooms as needed to drive toward our milestones on the "Focus Project" or explore projects in our "Discovery Track"

We made it offical and released our first app aimed to help and improve our community.
Honolulu Organizes CityCamp 2012. That was the first local event to introduce Code for America, a national organization that aims to “build open source technology and organize a network of people dedicated to making government services simple, effective, and easy to use.”
