The new 2026 Hawaiʻi Quality of Life Survey has been launched and residents across Hawaiʻi are invited to share your experiences related to health and well-being, work, education, cost of living, by May 31. This anonymous, 10-20 minute survey is open to Hawaiʻi residents 18+ years old, and is being conducted by the Partnership for Wellness and Resilience and builds on a similar survey conducted in early 2024, the results of which were turned into a public Dashboard that is used to inform policies, programs, and community decision-making across the state.

The 2026 survey will update those findings and, once again, the results will be made publicly available to help identify strengths, challenges, and opportunities to improve quality of life in Hawaiʻi.
