Meet The Inventor
Dana Jewel Harris, the visionary inventor and game developer behind The Community On Demand™ game-based learning management system, draws inspiration from a deeply personal journey.
Her innovative creation is rooted in her role as a mother navigating the complexities of her daughter's behavioral health challenges.
Harnessing the transformative power of experiential learning, Dana, an urban farmer herself, utilized her farm as a dynamic space to cultivate not only fresh produce but also a unique approach to addressing her daughter's needs. The Community On Demand™ platform emerged as a solution to engage and educate, leveraging game-based learning to instill essential life skills.
Dana's commitment to fostering a resilient and supportive community shines through as she seamlessly intertwines her passion for urban farming with her dedication to nurturing the well-being and growth of young minds.
