Finding the right words or ways to support a friend when times are tough can be challenging, and a recent MTV Entertainment study discovered that nearly 70% of young people do not believe they have the expertise or basic knowledge to help a friend.

That’s why we teamed up with and to create A.S.K., an interactive digital experience on emotional support. A.S.K. stands for Acknowledge, Support, Keep-in-Touch, and provides the essentials for having supportive conversations.

We always hear “mental health matters” but sometimes it can feel like that only applies if you fit a certain image.

Your unique journey is valid, and your mental health matters. 💙
