A conversation about intergenerational community development with Trina Nahm-Mijo, president and founder of the Grassroots Community Development Group, or GCDG, on Hawaiʻi Island.
GCDG has been a 501(c)(3) since 2005 and is best known for its award-winning program Keaʻau Youth Business Center (now Hawaiʻi Youth Business Center), which piloted an innovative hands-on skill-building curriculum in music and sound recording, digital arts, and culinary Arts. GCDG’s project Moʻo Pōʻai: Kūpuna Naue ʻŌpio has two parts. The Kūpuna component develops capacity in communities on Hawai’i Island to learn about the practice and application of Hoʻokuʻu ka hewa/Hoʻoponopono ʻike to health and social services in their communities. The ʻŌpio component supports media literacy classes in schools to increase social media proficiency while supporting social justice values in Hawaiʻi Island youth.
