Legal Resources Hub

QUICK LINKS

Everyone has fundamental rights under the U.S. Constitution, the Hawaiʻi State Constitution, and civil rights laws. This Resource Hub provides Know Your Rights materials, training resources, tools, and community resources to help individuals, families, allies, and volunteers understand and exercise those rights. 

The materials shared here have been developed by EPA, Roots Reborn, and other allied organizations with the intention of supporting education, preparedness, and community empowerment. We also include contact information and links to trusted organizations and service providers that may be able to offer additional support. 

While we strive to keep these resources up to date as laws and policies change, users should verify current information independently. The information provided here is for educational purposes only and does not constitute legal advice. To request a training, contact info@epamaui.org.
