Emma Kern's Company Details

Community decision makers, whether directly or indirectly, impact our collective well-being. Legislators determine the laws and policies that govern us, business leaders influence the economic climate in which we work and bank, nonprofit leaders shape services for the vulnerable among us, and community leaders help weave our social fabric. Quality data and thoughtful analyses enable these individuals to make sound decisions, and assess the impact of those decisions—not only within their respective sectors, but for the community as a whole.It is often difficult to access meaningful, cohesive data in ways that help us understand how people across Hawaii are faring, and which decisions are—or aren't—working in creating healthy, thriving communities. What's more, that lack of data undermines our shared understanding of the complex factors that support or erode our collective well-being, as well as our ability to assess changes in those factors over time.But this challenge presents a unique opportunity: To reimagine what is possible if we share a language and foundational knowledge about community well-being, supported by high-quality, relevant, and easily accessible data and analysis.
