West Oahu: We want to hear directly from Westside residents about their concerns and ideas for solutions to the problems facing the community. No need RSVP — swing by whenever you’re free on Thursday, September 12 from 1:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at Waianae Public Library.

16 years ago, Civil Beat did not exist.

Civil Beat exists today because thousands of readers like you read, shared and donated to keep our stories free and accessible to all. Now we need your support to continue this critical work.

Give now and support our spring campaign to raise $100,000 from 250+ donors by May 15. Mahalo for making this work possible!
