Hawai‘i Police Chief Benjamin Moszkowicz invites members of the public to take the department’s Community Satisfaction Survey, which runs Saturday, February 1, 2025, through 4:00 p.m. February 28, 2025. The department conducts the survey every two years as part of its national accreditation process. The anonymous survey can be accessed directly at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/HPD2025. By comparing the results of this year’s survey with the results of past surveys, the department can gauge where it has improved and where it needs further improvement.
