Last update: 17 minutes ago

Child Nutrition Across the Pacific: The Children’s Healthy Living Center of Excellence at UH Mānoa is marking 15 years since a 2011 USDA grant, working with communities in American Samoa and beyond to improve keiki nutrition through gardens, school food policies, and family-led healthy living. Retirement Fund Changes: Gov. Pulaali’i proposes lowering ASG’s Retirement Fund contribution rate from 14% to 8% for FY2026–27, then to 10% for FY2027–28, citing the current rate as “clearly unsustainable.” Women’s Health Care: Queen’s North Hawai‘i Community Hospital welcomed Dr. Jon “Sione” Hathaway to its Women’s Center; he also teaches and performs OB-GYN surgery at Lyndon B. Johnson Tropical Medical Center in American Samoa. Food Safety at Restaurants: Public debate continues after Jade Restaurant’s re-opening following a DOH shutdown tied to warehouse supply issues, with residents calling for tougher enforcement for repeat violators. Domestic Violence Funding: U.S. DOJ OVW grants totaling $900,000 were awarded to two American Samoa nonprofits to expand services for survivors, starting Aug. 1, 2026. Traveler Import Advisory: DOH issued guidance limiting travelers to 10 total food units and requiring medications to be labeled and declared for personal use only. Aviation Incident: Samoa Airways’ refurbished Twin Otter veered off the runway at Fitiuta Airport; one passenger reported a leg injury and the cause remains under investigation. Deep-Sea Mining Pushback: The Congregational Christian Church of American Samoa adopted a resolution opposing deep-sea mining in/near local waters, citing ecological, cultural, and precaution concerns.
