Background:
 

Children & Youth Day happens on the first Sunday of October, each year. This year is the 30th Anniversary which begins on Sunday, October 1, 2023 at 10:00am! CYD is a time to recognize the potential and special gifts of our keiki (children) and ‘ōpio (youth). It is a time for them to shine and share their bountiful energy with their community.

THE STORY OF CHILDREN & YOUTH DAY

In 1994, the Hawai‘i State Legislature and Governor established Children and Youth Day (CYD) in Hawai‘i as the first Sunday of every October to celebrate and honor our children and youth and the special contributions they make to our community. After much community discussion, Act 30 of 1997 was passed to dedicate the entire month of October as Children and Youth Month in Hawai‘i.
