Hood Latch

Hey everybody! I got a 99 civic hb with a cf hood and my hood latch isnt locking right now. my hood will go into da latch, but then wont close all da way down. What i did for now was somehow get a screwdriver, pushed da latch back, pushed down my hood and then used my hood pins to keep my hood down. I dont really like this "ghetto fix" and I'd like to fix ASAP. Any and all advice is greatly appreciated.
