Affordable Housing Solutions for Honolulu Families

Our local families often open their homes to young families and kūpuna who cannot afford to live independently—a reflection of our strong community values, but also a source of strain on even the closest family bonds. In my own household, three generations live together under one roof: my mother, my wife and I, our young son James, and soon my older son and his family.

To ease this burden, we need to increase the availability of affordable housing in Honolulu’s urban core. Expanding housing options for working families will help stabilize and reduce housing costs across the island, ensuring that every resident has the opportunity to own or rent a home they can truly call their own.
