About Hawai'i YIMBY
The result? Thousands of local residents are pushed to the mainland or into homelessness, while Hawaiʻi moves closer to becoming an exclusive playground for wealthy property owners.
We refuse to let that happen.
We believe we can build more homes while protecting what makes Hawaiʻi special. That means preserving our environment, supporting sustainable communities, strengthening tenant protections, and building a future where locals can afford to stay.
YES to affordable, sustainable, and inclusive homes for all.
How we work
Reform the rules
Back zoning reform and streamlined permitting so more homes are legal to build, especially near transit and jobs.
Educate & engage
Turn out residents to the meetings that matter and make it easy to take a pro-housing position on local projects.
Build partnerships
Work with neighbors, labor, faith groups, and builders toward a shared abundant-housing agenda.
Hawai'i YIMBY is a chapter of YIMBY Action.
One of the local groups organizing for more homes across the country, backed by the national team.
