100 to 0: Spotlight on the Samoan Community Development Center Community Hub

My name is Olive Pelesauma, but most people call me Tive. My current role at SCDC is a program lead for Ala Mai (Arise), an academic support program for Pacific Islander youth. However, since COVID and the opening of SCDC Community Hubs, I am currently one of the two Pod instructors for our Middle School hub. On a regular pod day, my role is to support our youth with their academic and technical challenges that many of our kids face with distance learning and making sure they are participating in class and completing assignments In addition, I also create fun activities and games for our youth to have, contacting teachers and counselors to support our students, and communicating with parents to make sure they know what’s going on with their youth. <a href="https://sf-dcyf.medium.com/100-to-0-spotlight-on-the-samoan-community-development-center-community-hub-e940d121d506">Learn More</a>
