Earlier this week, Surgeon General Vivek Murthy released an advisory stating, “there is not enough evidence to determine whether social media is safe enough for children and adolescents when it comes to their mental health.” While it may offer some benefits, social media presents “a profound risk of harm” to the mental well-being of young people.
Vibrant Emotional Health (Vibrant) fully supports the Surgeon General’s advisory and recommended steps that policymakers and technology leaders can take to safeguard the mental health of youth.
