You can make social media safer for children and future generations

Say you’re with us. Help protect kids online by calling on platforms and politicians to put our children first, not profits.

Don’t leave it to chance – embed safety by design from the beginning

Social media platforms can be a real danger to children.

For many teenagers, that means bombarding them with endless videos about suicide, self-harm, eating disorders, and negative body image.

Unaccountable tech companies have put virtually zero protections in place to stop kids from being pulled into endless cycles of negativity, depression, and self-hatred.

But collectively, we do have power. Congress will act – but only if we come together and use our voice to demand change.
