This episode of GrownKid is sponsored by the Schultz Family Foundation, whose mission is to create greater opportunity accessible to all. Today, 45% of young people report mental health challenges, yet 62% of those who have struggled aren’t getting the complete care they need. To address this crisis, the Foundation, in partnership with Pinterest, launched the Youth Mental Health Corps. The Corps trains and places young adults as mental health supporters in schools and communities in 16 states so far. These Corps members, who are close in age to the young people they serve, are having a real impact. Schools where they serve have seen fewer behavioral incidents and better attendance, and an increase in young people seeking help proactively. The Youth Mental Health Corps is continuing to expand-- helping thousands of young people get the support they need while also building careers in behavioral health.

whether it’s going to Chat for therapy sessions or using it to write a paragraph, AI has quietly, yet undeniably, seeped itself into our lives. in this episode, we go into the implications of AI, like the environmental harm it causes, and the class realities that make opting out a privilege. we talk about the pressure to use AI to keep up and the moral guilt that comes with it, but also how intentional AI use could give marginalized people access to the tools, guidance, and knowledge they never had. if both choices carry harm, is there an ethical way to participate or abstain?

the new buzzword everyone seems to be talking about is “community.” and though we keep hearing about the importance of community and how we have to create it, nobody really talks about what it actually is. is it friendship? is it a support system? a social circle? though the line of friendship and community blur, in this episode, we talk about how we differentiate the two, the steps we’ve taken to build both, and why everyone seems to be inconvenienced by them.
