What happened
A state audit found that over $13.7 million in payments for Gov. Josh Green’s kauhale homeless initiative were unauthorized, unsupported, or questionable. The report noted that neither the Statewide Office on Homelessness and Housing Solutions nor nonprofit kauhale builder HomeAid Hawai’i were prepared for the rapid construction pace of the tiny home communities. The audit was released less than a month before the November 3 general election.

Why it matters
Josh Green has made the kauhale response to homelessness a central pillar of his re-election campaign. The audit highlights the exponential growth of HomeAid Hawai’i’s budget, which increased from $207,407 in 2015 to $142.9 million in 2024 due to state contracts.
