The Summer Workgroup of BCHD's Youth Advisory Council developed  the Mindful Media Movement campaign. Students developed this campaign to address the rise in the negative effects that they saw social media was having on teens in their communities. The goal is to educate and raise awareness about the effects of unrestricted social media consumption. They did not want to vilify social media but instead promote a mindful approach to its usage.  

“Our hope is that the Mindful Media Movement will not only inspire our peers to adopt healthier online habits but also prompt meaningful discussions among adults—from parents who serve as role models and set guidelines at home to policymakers shaping regulations around digital engagement.” - Youth Advisory Council member
