Vision

"Honolulu will be the safest place in the nation
to live, work, and play."

 

Strategic Focus

Organizational effectiveness and efficiency. We will implement strategies that will make us more efficient in solving community problems and more effective at identifying patterns, trends, and changing safety issues impacting neighborhoods in every district. We will move aggressively to adopt new technologies to improve our effectiveness, enhance communication, and increase employee safety.

Employee relations. We will continue to find better ways to ensure a workplace that fosters effective communication, respect, and civility. We will improve internal communications at all levels and do more to support career development for every member of the department. We will support our employees with innovations and training in technologies that can make their jobs easier, more effective, and safer.

Community relations and customer service. We will find more ways to involve the community in reducing both crime and the perception of crime, and we will work more closely together to resolve neighborhood concerns and enhance the quality of life in Honolulu. We will place particular emphasis on helping our youth and elderly, and we will work to ensure that visitors to our island home experience a safe stay and the welcome of our Aloha spirit.
